Welcome to Woman's Hour's Listener Week, when all the topics, interviews and discussions are chosen by YOU!On today's programme, we hear from listener Siobhan Daniels. She wrote to us on Instagram: 'I would love you to talk about van life and an alternative way of living.' Siobhan is 65 years old and after selling her home and possessions has lived in her motorhome for five years. She joins Nuala McGovern on the programme. A message from a listener raised his concerns about the amount of time it had taken for his daughter's case to get to trial after she was sexually assaulted. He asked Woman's Hour to speak to the Crown Prosecution Service about why these delays occur. The CPS were unavilable for an interview and have sent us a statement. To discuss this topic we are joined live by Rape Crisis CEO, Ciara Bergman and barrister and author, Harriet Johnson.What's it like being a cathedral stonemason? After a listener asked to hear more about women working in heritage crafts, reporter Martha Owen went to meet Rachael Wragg, a stonemason at Lincoln Cathedral. Also known as @thegingermason on social media, Rachael tells us about working the stone, why she decided to retrain as a mason, and why she loves her job.For some surrogacy is extremely contentious, for others it's life changing. Our listener Helen Trenchard wanted to speak about her experience of having a baby by surrogate. It is legal in the UK although it is an offence to advertise that you are seeking a surrogate or are a potential surrogate looking for "intendend parents”. Nuala explores the topic with Helen and Rena Miras-Pye who carried Helen's baby. Presenter: Nuala McGovern Producer: Emma Pearce

One of the world's most acclaimed ceramicists, Edmund de Waal is renowned for simple, hand-made porcelain pots and bowls which are usually displayed in meticulously arranged groups. His work has been shown in museums and galleries including the V&A, the British Museum, the Frick in New York, and at the Venice Biennale. In 2010 Edmund de Waal became widely known as a bestselling author, after the publication of his family memoir The Hare With Amber Eyes which retraced his Jewish European heritage. A dramatic and tragic story about art, exile and survival, it led him on a journey from Tokyo to Odessa via 19th century Paris and Nazi occupied Vienna. On This Cultural Life, Edmund de Waal tells John Wilson about being taken to a pottery class at the age of five by his father, an Anglican cleric who worked at Lincoln Cathedral. He immediately fell in love with the process of moulding wet clay into vessels and was determined to become a potter. After leaving school he spent five months in Japan studying the ancient traditions of pottery with various master ceramicists. He remembers how a visit to the Ryoan-ji Temple in Kyoto had a huge impact on his understanding of space, contemplation and spirituality. During his first visit to Japan he also met his great uncle Ignatius Ephrussi from whom Edmund first learned about his European Jewish heritage, his family's exile from Vienna in the face of Nazi terror, and the collection of small Japanese figurines, known as netsuke, whose story was told in The Hare With Amber Eyes. Edmund chooses the ceramicist Lucie Rie, another Viennese exile in London, as a major influence on his practise. He describes his working routine in the ceramics studio, and how his pots are often made in response to poetry, citing the work of Romanian-born Paul Celan an American poet Emily Dickinson as particular influences.

As Radio 3 marks the 400th anniversary of William Byrd's death, Tom Service visits Lincoln Cathedral, the centre of musical activity where the composer held positions as organist and master of the basilica's choristers early in his career. He talks to the scholar Magnus Williamson about how the building's acoustics shaped Byrd's compositional voice, and speaks to both the cathedral's current Director of Music, Aric Prentice, and Lay Vicar, Thomas Wilson. He's also joined by four leading British composers and musicians who have worked with Byrd's music: Cheryl Frances-Hoad, James Weeks, Gabriel Jackson and Laura Cannell. They each discuss how they have worked Byrd into their own compositional voices. Ahead of her Prom with the BBC Symphony Orchestra later this month, Tom also hears from the conductor Elim Chan. Winner of the Donatella Flick LSO Conducting Competition in 2014, she tells Tom about her journey at the helm of several of the world's leading orchestras and why being on stage feels like being a rockstar.

December 2021 Cathedral Activation Begins Lisa Renee Dear Ascending Family, In the fog of global spiritual warfare, nothing can be accepted at face value, all is shifting on the inner, in between and outer planes, as the planet is in a state of grand flux in her ascension evolution. Through the transcendent moments of the triune unifier fire-water transmissions that were designed to surface our deepest spiritual wounds during the Ophiuchus cycle, these potent personal activations led up to a major crescendo of grid wars and defense of Christos trinity architecture and gateways. December was met with the major unpacking of NAA artificial machinery running black magic grids, reversal currents and metatronic base 5 programming throughout the ley lines as Dark Mother. These changes generated a series of explosions in the outer fields as the result of a series of Cathedral Activations which led to a grand activation at the Lincoln Cathedral in the United Kingdom during the Winter Solstice.

The conservation of cultural objects is a complex. It’s specialist area that requires a deep understanding of science and humanities, as well as craft and practice-based project management. To work in this field, we have to continually learn from the past mistakes and build from them. Studying how materials and methods worked previously and making sympathetic corrections, takes time and patience. Jamie Fairchild from the Uk is the sum of all these parts and has a strong reputation of providing detailed technical support, training, and consultancy for both practitioners architects. His company, Restorative Techniques, is brought in early to evaluate and produce site trials and reports, and aid decision-making on any complicated project. Restorative Techniques is well known for manufacturing equipment used in masonry cleaning with the Thermatech water system and Vortech abrasive system. Both machines provide a gentle approach to what has to be considered one of the more difficult sections of any project. Jamie teaches at West Dean College, namely for the ‘Masonry Cleaning’ and ‘Concrete Conservation’ Masterclasses, and has contributed to English Heritage handbooks on education. Some of the most notable buildings and artifacts Jamie has been involved on are the Tower of London, Lincoln Cathedral and The Westbury White Horse.

“When we sing we are literally breathing hope and faith that justice will come, that God will shine upon us, God will save us, God will revive us."What is giving you hope and faith during these times?//Psalm 80:1-7, 17-19Give ear, O Shepherd of Israel, you who lead Joseph like a flock!You who are enthroned upon the cherubim, shine forth before Ephraim and Benjamin and Manasseh.Stir up your might, and come to save us!Restore us, O God; let your face shine, that we may be saved.O Lord God of hosts, how long will you be angry with your people’s prayers?You have fed them with the bread of tears, and given them tears to drink in full measure.You make us the scorn of our neighbors; our enemies laugh among themselves.Restore us, O God of hosts; let your face shine, that we may be saved.But let your hand be upon the one at your right hand, the one whom you made strong for yourself.Then we will never turn back from you; give us life, and we will call on your name.Restore us, O Lord God of hosts; let your face shine, that we may be saved.//This episode was written and recorded by Luvon Roberson.

They accompanied Son et Lumiere performances that he devised for Norwell Church in the Diocese of Southwell in Nottinghamshire, tracing its history in colourful sound and story. Enjoy this a particularly sensitively sung setting of Richard of Chichester’s well-known prayer.
Magna Carta Libertatum (Medieval Latin for "the Great Charter of the Liberties"), commonly called Magna Carta (also Magna Charta; "Great Charter"), is a charter of rights agreed to by King John of England at Runnymede, near Windsor, on 15 June 1215. First drafted by the Archbishop of Canterbury to make peace between the unpopular King and a group of rebel barons, it promised the protection of church rights, protection for the barons from illegal imprisonment, access to swift justice, and limitations on feudal payments to the Crown, to be implemented through a council of 25 barons. Neither side stood behind their commitments, and the charter was annulled by Pope Innocent III, leading to the First Barons' War. After John's death, the regency government of his young son, Henry III, reissued the document in 1216, stripped of some of its more radical content, in an unsuccessful bid to build political support for their cause. At the end of the war in 1217, it formed part of the peace treaty agreed at Lambeth, where the document acquired the name Magna Carta, to distinguish it from the smaller Charter of the Forest which was issued at the same time. Short of funds, Henry reissued the charter again in 1225 in exchange for a grant of new taxes. His son, Edward I, repeated the exercise in 1297, this time confirming it as part of England's statute law. The charter became part of English political life and was typically renewed by each monarch in turn, although as time went by and the fledgling Parliament of England passed new laws, it lost some of its practical significance. At the end of the 16th century there was an upsurge in interest in Magna Carta. Lawyers and historians at the time believed that there was an ancient English constitution, going back to the days of the Anglo-Saxons, that protected individual English freedoms. They argued that the Norman invasion of 1066 had overthrown these rights, and that Magna Carta had been a popular attempt to restore them, making the charter an essential foundation for the contemporary powers of Parliament and legal principles such as habeas corpus. Although this historical account was badly flawed, jurists such as Sir Edward Coke used Magna Carta extensively in the early 17th century, arguing against the divine right of kings propounded by the Stuart monarchs. Both James I and his son Charles I attempted to suppress the discussion of Magna Carta, until the issue was curtailed by the English Civil War of the 1640s and the execution of Charles. The political myth of Magna Carta and its protection of ancient personal liberties persisted after the Glorious Revolution of 1688 until well into the 19th century. It influenced the early American colonists in the Thirteen Colonies and the formation of the American Constitution in 1787, which became the supreme law of the land in the new republic of the United States. Research by Victorian historians showed that the original 1215 charter had concerned the medieval relationship between the monarch and the barons, rather than the rights of ordinary people, but the charter remained a powerful, iconic document, even after almost all of its content was repealed from the statute books in the 19th and 20th centuries. Magna Carta still forms an important symbol of liberty today, often cited by politicians and campaigners, and is held in great respect by the British and American legal communities, Lord Denning describing it as "the greatest constitutional document of all times – the foundation of the freedom of the individual against the arbitrary authority of the despot". In the 21st century, four exemplifications of the original 1215 charter remain in existence, two at the British Library, one at Lincoln Cathedral and one at Salisbury Cathedral. There are also a handful of the subsequent charters in public and private ownership, including copies of the 1297 charter in both the United States and Australia.

Episode 003 where I talk to 11 year old Kieran Styles about his acting career and his role in Oliver in Lincoln Cathedral in August 2019. Probably my most nervous episode yet! This boy is an inspiration and I was in complete awe of him-I hope you will be too!
Fabienne Erato - aka the danish sound designer and composer Anne Gry Kristensen - creates a meditative, profound and evocative kind of music that seem to come from a deep abyss, where a not-yet-known conscience started navigating her own existence. Far away from the surface and its laws, her music recreates time and its rules. It slows down seconds, until it forges a calm disoriented feeling, where you both get lost and find yourself again. Her debut album, that has been composed on a Buchla Music Easel and captured on a portable tape recorder, will be out on wonderful Pomperipossa Records on May 24th. On this mixtape, Erato created a pleasant soundscape putting her own music together with all the best you can think of. Tracks: 1) Halim El-Dabh - Michael and the Dragon 2) Popol Vuh - In den Gärten Pharaos * 3) Anna Von Hausswolff - Källan (prototype), live in Lincoln Cathedral * 4) Tape-recording of the thunders of Armilla Jungle. 5) Alejandro Jodorowsky - Rainbow Room, Holy Mountain 6) Heresy of the Free Spirit feat. Keiji Haino - Prayer of Quiet * 7) Erna - Lygtemænd * 8) Jon hassell and Brian Eno - Delta Rain Dream 9) Craig Leon - Three Small Coins 10) Iasos - Osiris Bull-Man 11) Fabienne Erato - Side B * 12) Caroline Park - Merge 13) Tape-recording from the ocean of Agadir. * Sample from the song
På jakt etter korsmesteren. Med Tove Søreide og John Campbell. Besøk i Nidaros og Lincoln. Hvem var steinhuggerne som laget de flotte pilarene i Nidarosdomen da byggingen startet i middelalderen ? I et program fra 2001 forteller daværende formidlingsleder Tove Søreide i NDR om steinhuggermerker som peker mot Lincoln Cathedral i England. "Guds øye ser alt" var mottoet for håndverkerne som kom fra England til Nidaros. Selv ikke i de mørkeste kroker høyt oppe under taket kunne man fire på kvalitetskravene. Programleder Øyvind Arntsen

So pleased with myself that I was able to trigger the live broadcast from within Lincoln Cathedral last week' only to discover I was actually broadcasting silence for the first half hour, thanks Nigel and Sue for letting me know via the chat. Anyway hopefully this week should be fine because i am here right now, playing some hits from around the 69/70 era when most of us were kids, triggered by the recent loss of “Prince Buster” who provided us with some of the soundtracks of our time back then.

The Reverend Richard Coles visits Lincoln Cathedral, the focus of Medieval pilgrimage, to begin the last of his series exploring contemporary and historical ideas about sin. Having looked at the central place Temptation still has for many in both religious and secular societies the attention now swings to methods of redemption, purification and the goodness that is defined only by its counter to the idea of sin.
The Lincolnshire Echo ran the story. The Riddle of Jesus, the Last Supper and Lincoln's own Da Vinci Code, referring to the discovery of a dog on the platter at the scene of the Last Supper upon the Great East Window within Lincoln Cathedral. The notion of Lincoln Cathedral having its own Da Vinci Code appealed to me within an instant, I set about investigating it and the rest is now modern history. From the very onset, synchronicity played its part the fellow who discovered the dog on the plate during repairs to the window had the word cup in his surname, the Grail once held to be a golden cup or chalice, Tom Kupper, being leader of the cathedral glazing department. As I was making exciting progress in pursuing this chance find of a factual Cathedral Code, the most unbelievable announcement was made in July 2006 Hollywood was going to come to film scenes for Dan Brown's fictional The Da Vinci code, within the cathedral! Join us for this fascinating investigative show with Dan Green, the documentary filmaker of "The Murder of Mary Magdelane", and discussion of the mysteries of Lincoln Cathedral in England.
