I learnt that Helen Sharman might be featured on the first KIngston pound note. Helen, the first British astronaut is manager of Kingston University Science Faculty.
I also learnt that the Kingston Pound can be issued at Banquet Records, Eden St, Kingston. Electronically onto your smart phone.
Thanks jean and apologies for getting her name wrong on the recording!
Good questions, Very clear answers - money moving around the economy !
