Ukrainian welcome message

Here is an audio welcome message for Ukrainian refugees from Scottish children. It is recorded by them in English with Ukrainian translation.

Аудіопривітання для українських біженців у Шотландії, яке записали шотландські діти. Оригінал аудіо англійською мовою, записаний дітьми, разом з перекладом українською.

Hello dear friend, welcome to Scotland. Sorry to hear about your situation and what is currently happening in parts of your country. We know Scotland is not your real home but we hope it can feel like a second home for you. We will try to make it feel more like home for you. You will need to get used to it raining a lot here but it doesn’t rain all the time and apart from that it is a great country to live in. We hope we can be friends and that you all feel safe and happy here.

Привіт, дорогий друже, ласкаво просимо до Шотландії.

Нам шкода чути про ситуацію, в якій ти перебуваєш і те, що відбувається в різних частинах твоєї країни.

Знаємо, що Шотландія не є твоїм справжнім домом, але сподіваємося, що ти зможеш відчути себе тут так, як у другому домі.

Ми постараємося зробити так, щоб ти відчув (або відчула) себе тут, як вдома. Тобі потрібно буде звикнути до того, що тут часто йде дощ, але так буває не весь час і за винятком цього Шотландія є чудовою країною для життя.

Віримо, що можемо стати друзями і що ви всі відчуєте себе тут безпечно і добре.

Special thanks to Anastasiia Soholovska for the written and audio translation.

Income seems straight forward but it can become complicated if we have lots of different sources or don't know how much we might earn in a pay period.

This episode looks at different places who might pay us, payslips, deductions and why knowing our full income is important.

This has been Debt Awareness Week and I wanted to acknowledge it even though I want to wait to do a full in-depth episode, or several episodes on debt, later down the line.

This short bonus episode give a few tips on dealing with debt and how we should think about what debt is so that we can manage it better.

We probably all have a bank account but how did you pick it?  And was that a good reason to choose that particular bank?

You might be going to uni and looking for a student account or wondering what it means to have a joint bank account.  We’ll be breaking down the most common accounts to let you understand the basics of each and what they would be used for.

This episode should give you the skills to choose the right account and bank for you needs.

Money is one of the least talked about subjects – in social settings, in school, in general – the topic of money is avoided!

In this episode we have a quick chat about money, why people avoid the subject, why we should be talking about it and some statistics from a recent study about money.  We need to encourage open and honest discussions about money, how we use it, what issues we are having with it and how to manage it better.

This week we had guest Dr. Kirsty Ross who talked to us about arthritis, vaccines, colours and shared some science jokes!
