Episode description

In this edition, we find out how a perfect storm has led to a huge surge in demand for mental health services - doubling waiting times and preventing some getting the help they need. We’ll also be hearing more about how Al-Anon Family Groups provide support to those affected by someone else’s drinking. And Alex Berry from Tandridge District Council will be here to tell us about important changes to the voting process this May.


Paul Talmey finds out from Beth Gardner about a group that’s combating isolation and loneliness in Forest Row. Carrie Overton will be talking happiness with laughter yoga teacher Sam Rehan. And Norman Wong will be talking to scientist Phil Brandish about British Science Week.
