Join our hosts for Tuesday’s show from 4-6pm where we will be discussing: ‘Fraud’ and ‘Maths Matters’

Fraud

Fraud is the UK’s most common crime. From fake Hajj travel schemes to fraud in London, join us as we reveal how deception targets the vulnerable, especially older adults, with devastating impact.

Maths Matters

In everyday life, maths helps with simple but essential tasks like budgeting money, calculating discounts, managing time, and planning journeys. Whether you’re shopping, cooking, or organizing your day, you’re using maths without even realizing it. Join us as we celebrate all things numerical.
