Qasa asks whether listeners have faced racial inequality in the UK, as communities secretary Sajid Javid talks to him about a government audit on the topic.

Have you faced racial inequality in the UK? We're asking this after what the government has called an "unprecedented" audit pulling together data on how people of all races are treated in areas including health, education, criminal justice and employment. Communities Secretary Sajid Javid speaks to us about the findings. It's World Mental Health Day and Qasa is joined by Dr Shahid Latif, a consultant psychiatrist, and Kal Singh Dhindsa, who started writing about mental health issues after his father took his own life. Pakistani-Canadian comedian Fawzia Mirza, who wrote and stars in the film Signature Move, talks about the movie being shortlisted for The Iris Prize - an annual award for short films which have a focus on LGBT issues. Then Qasa talks to Geoff Driver, the leader of Lancashire County Council, about a row over halal meat in Lancashire schools. The county council are debating whether it should only be serving up meat from animals which are stunned before they are slaughtered.
