50 years of Transport, Wedding Restrictions, Green Homes Grant

Celebrating 50 years of You & Yours - how has transport changed since the 1970s?

You & Yours is 50 years old this week. In this programme we'll hear your memories of transport in the 1970s, and discuss how motoring, public transport and travel have evolved over those 50 years. Tell us about the holidays you went on in the seventies.
The pandemic has had a big impact on the wedding industry, with many customers postponing until next year. For those who do want to go ahead, you're limited to 30 guests in Wales, 20 in Scotland and just 15 people in England - but in Northern Ireland there isn't a fixed limit. We talk to a groom who has cut his wedding party from 100 to 15, and to wedding venues about the cost of these restrictions.
The government's new Green Homes Grant has launched, offering vouchers towards the cost of making your home warmer and more efficient. You & Yours listeners have told us they're having issues finding approved installers where they live. We speak to Trustmark, the organisation providing the accreditation for installers working under the scheme.
Presented by Winifred Robinson.
Produced by Beatrice Pickup.
