Alarm at the imminent closing of Aberfeldy’s last bank has prompted a poverty activist to consider how the rural Perthshire town can move forward.
Angela Hanvey works for Christians Against Poverty (CAP) at the Highland Perthshire Debt Centre based in Aberfeldy Parish Church.
Part of her work with those who have debt issues is to ask clients to open a new bank account so that all their debts are concentrated in the one place and can be worked away at with CAP’s assistance.
