Bumblebee Conservation Trust
Year 2016Episode 610 min

Bumblebee Conservation Trust

Alison Steadman presents an appeal on behalf of the Bumblebee Conservation Trust, an organisation founded in response to the plight of the bumblebee. Britain's bumblebee populations have crashed as their natural habitats, like wildflower meadows and unmown verges, have been lost from the countryside. Bumblebees are important for biodiversity and are relied upon to pollinate many flowers, fruit and veg, so the charity is working to get their numbers back up. Alison finds out how the Bumblebee Conservation Trust is helping create 10,000 hectares of habitat to enable Britain's 24 species of bumblebees to thrive. From Pembrokeshire smallholder Clare, who has replaced a patch of grassland with a bumblebee-friendly wildflower meadow, to large-scale landowners creating wild bumblebee zones on their property, there's something everyone can do to help the plight of the bumblebee.

Medical Detection Dogs
Year 2016Episode 910 min

Medical Detection Dogs

Kate Humble presents an appeal on behalf of the charity Medical Detection Dogs, which has identified in dogs an incredible ability to sniff out human health conditions, including cancer. Archie is eight and has severe diabetes. Since he was born, his blood sugar levels have fluctuated without warning, leaving his parents exhausted from constant monitoring and terrified he might not survive the night. But thanks to Medical Detection Dogs, they now have a dog trained to alert them to changes in Archie's breath that show he needs his blood sugar levels checked. Domino has given Archie the chance to feel like a normal little boy. Kate also watches in amazement as a labrador called Kiwi correctly picks out urine samples positive for prostate cancer. If it is successful, research by Medical Detection Dogs could help experts to develop a cheap, non-invasive test for prostate cancer that could revolutionise the science of diagnosis.

The Prince's Trust

Brenda Blethyn presents an appeal on behalf of the Prince's Trust, a charity that gives vulnerable young people the skills and confidence they need to find work or make progress at school or college.

Laura's life took a horrific turn when she was attacked at the age of sixteen, but rather than report the abuse, she turned in on herself and developed an eating disorder. She spent months in hospital recovering physically, but it was only thanks to the inspirational programmes run by the Prince's Trust that she managed to rebuild her confidence and sense of purpose. She has now signed up to a college course in mental health care and is about to move out of supported housing to live independently.
