Summary

If you've found the last few weeks stressful - and who hasn't? - we're here with some help. Mick talks to Katya Jezzard-Puyraud of Lighthearts UK to get some tips on dealing with anxiety, and long-time home edder Hazel Davies gives us some tips for coping now that schools have all been shut. We've also got Abortion Support Network’s Mara Clarke filling us in on what’s happening to women needing to access abortion services in the time of coronavirus. And in Jenny Off The Blocks, Jen chats to journalist Carrie Dunn about what the abrupt end to the football season means for next year's Women's Euros. Hannah's having the time of her life, watching Avalanche, very much the Crossroads of disaster films. Plus there's trolley trolls, pregnancy and the Windrush scandal in the Bush Telegraph. Tuck in. Stay safe. And socially distance. Until next week!
