Reflections on Amy Winehouse, Ramadan and Blythburgh priory
Addiction, Jewish funerals, having a fair trade Ramadan and Blythburgh priory.
A week since the death of singer Amy Winehouse, Rob explores the issue of addiction with Steve Magnall, Chair of Trustees at Focus12 in Bury St Edmunds.
He also hears from Elizabeth Sugarman from Suffolk's Jewish community on the traditions behind Jewish funerals.
The congregation at St Mary's in Brent Eleigh, near Lavenham, are benefiting from hot air!
They say their energy bills have been cut by a third after installing an air-source heat pump, the first of its kind in the diocese.
The Refugee Council says the case of a Congolese student in Ipswich highlights a gap in the system which means people who are given asylum, risk then being made homeless.
They argue asylum-seekers should be given the right to work so they have some savings for when they are granted refugee status.
There's also healthy eating in west Suffolk, having a fair trade Ramadan and the 12th Century priory in Blythburgh is set to hold its first religious service for almost 500 years.
And how the region's Cultural Olympiad project, On Landguard Point, got on filming a Feast in a Field at the Museum of East Anglian Life in Stowmarket.
