    Life and Lyrics

    Two singers share how personal experience has shaped their song lyrics - from escaping a bad relationship, to long night shifts.

She now hopes her music will help empower other women in the same situation. Spencer Flay has used the isolation of his crane cabin - 30 metres above sea level - to hone his song writing and ukulele playing skills. Presented and produced by Becca Bryers - with additional production from Shivani Dave. With thanks to BBC Radio Bristol and Juno Women's Aid.

    Legacy

    Two stories of people making and continuing legacies - from making space in the equestrian world, to sharing the spiritual teachings of yoga. Freedom found a passion for horse riding as a teenager, when his parents moved the family from Leicester, to the Caribbean island of Antigua. Returning to the UK five years later, he was struck by how much he stood out in the equestrian world, as a young black man from the inner city. He now dedicates his time to ensuring kids from all backgrounds have the opportunity to share his passion. Kids like Kanane, one of The Urban Equestrian Academy's biggest success stories to date. Jal grew up in Preston, thinking yoga was just something grannies did in the temple and resisting suggestions she gave it a go herself. It wasn't until her husband Richard suggested a spontaneous year-long adventure in India that she truly connected to the spiritual practise - a life-changing experience. Presented and produced by Becca Bryers, with additional production from Versha Nayee at BBC Radio Lancashire.
