The Psalm 23 Garden; Ukrainian singer Jamala; the Archbishop of York

William Crawley looks at the ethical and religious issues of the week.

The Psalm 23 Garden made its debut at last year’s Chelsea Flower Show, developed by the landscape designer Sarah Eberle in collaboration with the Bible Society. The multi-award winning garden has moved to its permanent home at the Winchester Hospice. Hazel Southam, from the Bible Society, and Maddy Thomson, consultant nurse palliative care at the Winchester Hospice, talk about what the garden has to offer to those facing the end of their lives and their families.

William Crawley speaks with Susana Alimivna Jamaladinova, known as Jamala, a Ukrainian composer and singer who won the 2016 Eurovision Song Contest with her song 1944, about the forced exile of the Crimean Tartar Muslims in 1944, and whose father was a Crimean Tartar Muslim. Jamala is now in exile with her two children in Tbilisi, Georgia.

The Archbishop of York, Stephen Cottrell shares his message for Easter that Christ’s resurrection shows us that death and suffering, hatred and oppression never have the final word. Love triumphs.
