Navid Evening Times article
STILL Game actor Sanjeev Kohli helps dish out advice at the launch of a pilot financial scheme.
The 33-year-old, who plays newsagent Navid Harrid in the Glasgow-based sitcom, joined Councillor Gordon Matheson to introduce a new service from BCD Credit Union and Citizens Advice Scotland.
The service is based at the CAB on Kennedy Path in Townhead, Glasgow, and will offer residents a one-stop-shop for free financial and legal advice and support.
Townhead is the first place in the UK to benefit from the venture, which could be rolled out across Glasgow if it proves successful.
Mr Matheson said the service, which is next to the newsagent where Sanjeev films Still Game, is great news for his constituents.
He said: "Sound financial advice is a crucial element in promoting social inclusion.
"The Townhead area has never had these services on its doorstep, but this is about to change and I will be encouraging everyone to take up the chance of free and impartial assistance from professionals."
