Stories of Ulster-Scots lassies this week: in the media, in music and in reaching out to improve the mental health of friends.

For International Women鈥檚 Day, the lassies bringing an Ulster-Scots dimension to the media, helping band members through hard times, and the hairt-sang of a traditional musician.

It鈥檚 all about the lassies this week as Helen Mark and Jonnie Crawford meet Laura McConnell and Jane Rea who are helping their Ulster-Scots communities tell their stories on the small screen.
Rab Lennox has a yarn with Alicia Dickson-Hamilton and Lindsay Ferguson about the Light of Foot charity鈥檚 mental health work among local bands and its expansion into Scotland.
Chloe McGreggor has a song to share that warms her heart.
As always, listeners are encouraged to contact the programme if they鈥檝e a good Ulster-Scots yarn, song or event to talk about. The easiest way to do that is by email - kintra@bbc.co.uk.
