A LECTURE is taking place in Southampton to offer help for people fighting debt problems.

The Rev Peter Challon, chairman of the Christian Council for Monetary Justice, will be speaking on debt burden and debt relief at the Katie Young Memorial Lecture.

The event will be held in the Sir James Matthews Building at Southampton Institute from 6.30pm on November 17.

Katie Young, who died in 1997, was the first full-time Chaplain of the Institute, and the lecture is held as a tribute to her work with students and staff.
