Presented by Jane Garvey. Taking kids out of school to go on holiday - is it ever okay? With a record number of unauthorised holidays being taken by school children and their families, we look at what's likely to happen over the extended Easter Break. In our "Cook the Perfect" season you can learn how to whip up a delicious Shepherd's Pie with Lindsey Bareham. And continuing our Women in Business initiative we listen in to the advice Nikki King from Isuzu Trucks UK gives to her mentee Jo Pateman who runs Women With Waders, a company which specialises in cleaning and maintaining ponds and lakes. And Diana Beresford-Kroeger shares her passion for trees.
