The Financial Action Task Force leads global action in tackling money laundering, terrorist and proliferation financing. A Crown Counsel from the Rock has completed a training course in Qatar organised by the FATF. The Ministry of Justice, Trade and Industry's Michael Adamberry is currently deployed to the RGP's Economic Crime Unit and the Customs Financial Investigations team.


Today is pancake day! From strawberries and cream to lemon drizzle, to chocolate spread - the options are endless! Local nutritionist Amber Bishop told us what the nutritional value of a pancake is, as well as her favourite toppings.


Ramadan is being observed by Muslims worldwide as a month of fasting, prayer, reflection, and community. The Muslim Youth of Gibraltar will celebrate all of those things at their Annual Public Iftar on Saturday. Volunteer Mouetaz Ziani and spokesperson Youseff El Hana told us more.


And, SSAFA is a UK-based charity that provides trusted support to serving men and women and veterans from the British Armed Forces and their families. Alan Jones of the local branch joins us now ahead of a coffee morning planned later this week.
