Adult acne, Author Clare Morrall, Suicide at British universities
The psychological impact of adult acne and how best to cope with the condition, suicide at British universities and teenage explorer Jade Hameister on her polar hat-trick.
Brit Award winner Lorde recently posted on Instagram that she's finds people's comments about what she should do about her bad skin unhelpful. The 21- year old says she's been trying various drugs and creams for years and nothing's worked. For women whose spots don't clear up after they leave their teens or those who get acne as an adult it can have a real psychological impact. Jenni speaks to journalist Maybelle Morgan, and dermatologist Dr Anjali Mahto, about living with adult cystic acne and the best ways to cope.
Suicide at British universities. We hear from the mother of Saagar Naaresh who had completed his second year at Durham University when he took his own life in 2014 aged just 20. Ged Flynn the chief executive of Papyrus - a charity which works to prevent suicide among the young explains why it's young men who are more likely to take their own lives whilst young women seem to suffer from mental health problems in greater numbers.
Plus the girls who went missing from their school in Nigeria earlier this week - what's known of where they are following their abduction by Boko Haram. The Australian teenager who's completed the polar hat trick - Jade Hameister explains her motivation. And author Clare Morrall talks about latest novel which features a cast of quiry, somewhat damaged characters.
