Personal Resilience Event, Leuchars Station
Date published: 7th February 2020Lorraine Reid, our ASAP adviser attended the Personal Resilience Event for service personnel currently based at Leuchars station. Our contribution was around budgeting and household expenditure. Interactive group activities had all the Battalions discussing the consequences of not paying household bills such as council tax, utilities and child maintenance. Financial education on how to improve budgeting skills was warmly welcomed and our ASAP adviser enjoyed the opportunity to share her knowledge with everyone. Thank you to all service personnel who attended the event for the warm welcome, hopefully you all took something away from the sessions.
