In 2007, after Julie Bailey鈥檚 mother Bella died at Stafford Hospital, appalled at what her mother went through, Julie went on to expose the failings at the hospital and set up Cure The NHS. Her 鈥榳histleblowing鈥� led to a public inquiry by Robert Francis QC which uncovered cases of neglect and abuse at Stafford Hospital. This eventually resulted in new rules and regulations being introduced into the NHS to ensure higher standards of care. But she faced a torrent of personal and online abuse, and last year was forced to sell her business and move away from Stafford. On Woman鈥檚 Hour two weeks ago Julie Bailey was chosen as the second of the ten most significant of Woman鈥檚 Hour Game Changers for her courage and resilience in daring to speak out, and because she has 鈥渃hanged the game for the care of older people鈥�.

Blues musician Ben Harper has teamed with his mum, Ellen Harper, to record a duet album 鈥淐hildhood 麻豆约拍.鈥� The album addresses different aspects of love, the duality of love and human nature.听 As the title implies, the project traces its roots to Ben Harper鈥檚 childhood: his grandparents in 1958 opened a folk music centre in Claremont, California, which Ellen Harper still runs. Because she was a single mother, Ben Harper used to spend time there after school and on weekends, which both have credited with shaping his own musical path.听 Ben Harper wrote six of the songs on the album, and Ellen wrote the other four. 鈥淐hildhood 麻豆约拍鈥� is due May 6 on Concord Records. They join Jenni in the studio.
