Women Together: Guest Elizabeth Peck

Author, Elizabeth Peck, will be joining the team of Women Together to discuss her book, “Why Does Mummy’s Tummy Hurt“.  Broadcast LIVE on Wednesday, September 28th from 8:30 – 9:30pm – listeners will be invited to call 01223 375564 to share their experiences with speaking to their children about some of the “bigger issues” life throws their way. 

About the Book:  You’re a mother with a young child, who always wants to come with you everywhere, including to the bathroom. Every month you have the stress of making the child wait outside, confused and upset, while you now also upset and stressed out deal with sanitary products and all the rest. If only you had a child-friendly book to explain all this to your little one, so that they didn’t feel abandoned, scared, or confused, and you could have some privacy! Why Does Mummy’s Tummy Hurt? explains periods in a warm, child-centred and age-appropriate way, to help mums in exactly this situation.

About the Author: Elizabeth has grown in her love of writing since the birth of her daughter in 2015. Her inspiration is her desire to communicate both everyday and profound truths to her daughter, in ways that are at once accurate and beautiful. Exploring ideas from the menstrual cycle to the meaning of beauty itself, Elizabeth s writing allows children to consider concepts that help to shape how they understand the world.  She teaches at St. Mary’s School in Cambridge.

Women Together - Season 3 - Episode 4 - Regenerative Farming

On this month’s Women Together, Genevieve will be speaking with Holly, Director of Regenerative Farming and County Coordinator for Gleaning Cornwall.  We may be familiar with “gleaning” from the Old Testament story of Ruth and Naomi, but does gleaning have a place in our modern world today?

Gleaning, a term dating back to the bible was a right of the poor up to the late 18th century, under common law. It is the act of collecting leftover crops from farmers’ fields after they have been commercially harvested or on fields where it is not economically profitable to harvest.  The practice has a rich history and is deeply connected to feeding those that did not have access to their own land (and therefore could not grow food for themselves). As the UK moves further away from knowing where its food is grown, gleaning brings people back to the land.  Listen in to hear how Gleaning Cornwall is helping.


Women Together - Season 3 - Episode 3 - Christian Journalism

Join us this Wednesday, May 25th, for the monthly programme, Women Together.  Jo Siedlecka, editor of Independent Catholic News, will be the guest.  She’ll share with us what has been our experience as a Catholic Woman journalist.

A bit about Jo:

I’ve been a reporter now for over 30 years and love my job. After training at the London College of Communication, my first job was four years on a local London paper. From there I began freelancing – for the London Evening Standard, BBC and other outlets. The main subjects I like to cover have always been people, human rights and the environment. This naturally brought me to reporting on Church issues (and brought me back to my faith after a long absence). I met Mother Teresa, Catholic charities working with the homeless, and missionaries working overseas. I soon began writing for the Catholic press and did a stint at the Bishops’ Conference Catholic Media Office.

In 2000, Tertio Millennio Adveniente, called for lay people to play a more active role in the work of the Church. I thought about this and wondered what I could do. I realised there wasn’t a daily UK-based Catholic news service – so together with some friends I set up ICN.  I try to follow the advice of the patron saint of journalists St Francis de Sales who said: “You can attract more flies with a spoonful of sugar than a bucket of vinegar.”
