Stella Creasy MP, Living with one breast, City Girl in Nature

Last week on the programme we heard from Katy Marks, an architect by trade, who discovered after her single mastectomy that there was no bra on the market that was flat on one side. She didn’t want to use a prosthetic and so designed her own. Lots of you got in touch following that item to talk about your own experiences of living with one breast. Krupa Padhy is joined by two listeners, Diane Devlin and Laura Homer.

Born and raised in Deptford, South East London, Kwesia didn’t grow up with a lot of nature around her. That’s until she went on a life-changing trip to the Amazon where she camped in the rainforest. She’s since created her Youtube channel, City Girl in Nature, to guide other city dwellers into the great outdoors. She speaks to Krupa about her platform, nature activism work, and winning Best New Voice at the Audio Production Awards for her podcast Get Birding.

COP28 is now fully underway in the UAE. The conference of world leaders and experts in the environment will discuss many things, one of them being plastic pollution. Women are more vulnerable to the negative health impacts from single-use plastics, and also form a larger majority of its consumers. So what are world leaders doing to reduce plastic pollution? Krupa is joined by Christina Dixon from the Environmental Investigation Agency to discuss.
