2025-09-23 - Cathy McLinden, Rural Financial Counsellor [Margaret O'connor].mp3
Cathy McLinden has been the Armidale based Rural Financial Counsellor for a little over 12 months. Hailing from Forbes Cathy is enjoying the change from western slopes to high country lifestyle in the Armidale region.
Cathy talks about the wide scope of help that the Rural Financial Counselling Service team offers people in the agricultural sector who need support during times of actual or anticipated financial hardship.
This free Australian Government initiative uses an independent, confidential case management framework to help primary producers plan, set and implement goals to improve financial self sufficiency.
Cathy explains in a relaxed conversation with 2ARM's Margaret O'Connor just how the rural financial counselling service works to help primary producers understand their long term outlook and work on improving business decision making skills and address the range of issues that often arise in considering the many aspects of a farming enterprise.

Folowing the rise of ISIS in Iraq and elsewhere in the Middle East in 2014, many Ezidi people were displaced as they fled fom the terror that took over their homelands. The genocide carried out by Islamic State saw over 5,000 Ezidis kiled and thousands of Ezidi women and girls forced into sexual slavery. More than 500,000 Ezidis found refuge in camps.
Thousands have now been resettled around the world including Australia.
How has Ezidi settlement in Armidale over the past five years progressed?
