Shared Lives Carers scheme in the spotlight.

The Shared Lives Scheme partners vulnerable adults with carers who are prepared to take them into their homes. But pay and conditions vary widely. Now Unite is representing 42 carers who want change. We hear from two about their experiences and Winifred Robinson talks to Alex Fox, chief executive of Shared Lives Plus, the membership charity for the scheme.

The UK is a nation of hoarders according to a British Heart Foundation survey. Carol Mitchell is Regional Manager with the BHF and Kate Ibbotson is a Professional Organiser and Declutter and Productivity Coach. They talk to Winifred Robinson about how to declutter.

Most products come and go - some last a century - Chanel No. 5 is 100 but what lies behind its enduring appeal and what other perfumes have gone the distance?
