Scottish child payment is £27.15 a week per eligible child, payable every four weeks. There is no limit on how many children within a family can get Scottish child payment. This on top of what rUK gets.

How lovely! My two most loved liminal places/spaces on the planet ~ Isle of Iona and Rosslyn Chapel 💙

Trisha Elliott @trishaelliott.bsky.social · 18h

I was very honoured to play my Clarsach tonight in Rosslyn Chapel, with a flute choir from the Midlothian Community Concert Band.

It’s such a beautiful venue, and everyone was so encouraging as I’m still a beginner.

The tune is Isle of Iona, adapted by Elinor Evans & David Knox.
