Felicity Hannah speaks to the London Chamber of Commerce and a business in the heart of the capital to find out how they are adapting .

A record breaking pay rise on the way for thousands of workers as the Living Wage Foundation sets its new rates next week - we'll have the details. And, two months after the incredible highs of England's Lionesses winning the Euros for the first time ever, the Women's Super League is back. But just how much of an impact has England's international success had on ticket sales for women's football back home? Sport Finance expert Christina Philippou joins us to explain.

It's been a summer of significant progress for the women's game. England are champions of Europe. Watching on were Izzy Christiansen and Toni Duggan, two legends of the English game who have played a significant role on the journey. That journey hit a significant milestone when the Lionesses, led by Sarina Wiegman, were crowned European champions for the very first time. In our latest episode of the Official Everton Women Podcast, Christiansen and Duggan reflect on the historic tournament, the growing popularity of women's football and the pair's excitement to begin their competitive season under the guidance of new boss Brian Sorensen.

Ep 218: Following their two recent victories, the Lionesses are going to next year's World Cup. Here I chat with Rachel Major, one of The Gang, a Lionesses supporters group, all about it. I also pay my respects to Her Majesty the Queen.

The success of England's footballing Lionesses at the recent UEFA women's championship has massively increased the popularity of the women's game. Now, the Football Association has included blind women in their disability talent strategy. The 2023 IBSA world games provide an early opportunity for a team of blind women players to follow in the footsteps of their sighted counterparts by lifting a major trophy. We speak to three England hopefuls about their journey in the blind beautiful game. There is a perception among many people that having a visual impairment automatically means a love of music, but, as with so many other activities, sight loss can mean barriers to becoming a musician. Undeterred by this, and already having learned to play violin and viola, sixteen year old Toben Durrant is now a member of the Welsh National Youth Opera. We talk to him about his experience as a young blind musician. We also speak to acclaimed Soprano, Victoria Oruwari about support for young blind people wanting to become musicians.

He is wearing a dark green jumper with the collar of a check shirt peeking at the top. Above Peter's head is the BBC logo, Across Peter's chest reads "In Touch" and beneath that is the Radio 4 logo.

The sports spotlight is now focused on the US Open as the First Round gets underway today and we take a look at the prospects and who has caught our attention. And we have the highest paid tennis players which features four women in the top ten but the highest earning woman may surprise you. In football, Barcelona's Alex Putellas wins UEFA Player of the Year trophy which must be some consolation after a torn ACL prevented her from playing in the Euros. As the Lionesses name their squad for the upcoming World Cup qualifiers, Ellen White reveals that a punctured lung injury prompted her retirement. The USWNT prepares this week for two friendly games and have named Racing Louisville midfielder Savannah DeMelo to replace Washington Spirit forward Trinity Rodman who has a family commitment. In motor sport, F1 male driver Sebastian Vettel says he can't see why a woman can't start on F1 grid in contrast to Formula 1 chief Stefano Domenicali who said it was "very unlikely" that it will happen before 2027. And why women fear for their families in Afghanistan who will be killed for supporting women's sport.Hosts: Chris Stafford & Nancy GillenRecorded: August 29, 2022WiSP Sports is the ONLY GLOBAL PODCAST NETWORK FOR WOMEN'S SPORT with more than 60 hosts, 1600+ episodes across 50 shows and over 7 million downloads.

Nancy is back from vacation and straight into the news this week as the USWNT and the new European Champions, England. name their roster for September matches; the US has friendlies while the Lionesses have World Cup qualifiers. And we compare ticket prices to the games: at the Audi Field, Washington, DC - USWNT friendly v Nigeria $150 / 126.88 pound sterling. By contrast the Lionesses play at Stoke City and their WC Qualifier v Luxembourg ticket costs 15 pound sterling / $17.73. Naturally we have something to say about that. Meanwhile Barcelona announced they will play championship league games at Camp Nou. On Monday, August 29 the U.S. Open Tennis gets underway at Flushing Meadow, New York through to September 11 and we take a look at the main contenders. And a topic that will likely be discussed more at the Grand Slam is the difference between men's and women's balls. Yes, it's a thing! And over in motor racing the Formula 1 chief says female drivers is unlikely in five years. Did you know that F2 and 3 do not have power steering but Formula 1 does? And while Nancy was away from her desk the European Athletic Championships were held in Munich. Yes, that's three major meets this summer in quick succession; World Champs, Commonwealth Games and European Champs.

After a momentous and quite unbelievable victory against Liverpool, hosts Harry Robinson and Jack Tait revel in this brilliant, brilliant win.They review United's 2-1 victory against Liverpool at a properly raucous, baying Old Trafford. They talk about that wild atmosphere, Erik ten Hag's tactics and set-up, changes to De Gea's role, a renewed and revitalised back four, the energy and spirit showed by a set of players some of whom seemed destined for the scrap pile. They then talk about what this really means: how replicable is this performance going forward? How does Casemiro come into this? Do Maguire and Ronaldo regain their places, and if so when?In the middle of the show Harry gives you a youth, loan and women's round-up as the conquering Lionesses return to the club for pre-season games against PSG and Bayern Munich and the U18s kick off their season.

Dave and Elizabeth are joined by Karen from the Staggering Stories podcast to celebrate the England Lionesses' victory at UEFA 2022 and Karen's experiences of women's football (it is not soccer!). Then Dave and Elizabeth look at the classic film Gregory's Girl

This week's themed content sees us discussing those people whose job it is to enforce the law as we start things off with a rigorous interrogation of the Top 5 Police Officers. Will a thorough application of the rules prevent us from hearing about one dad's favourite Traffic Warden? Sidey chose Hannes Halldórsson's 2021 gay buddy action spoof COP SECRET for us to review this week and we are awfully glad he did. Whilst investigating a mysterious criminal organisation which has been breaking into Iceland's biggest institutions but apparently not stealing anything, Reykjavik's toughest police officer, the hard drinking and reckless Detective Bussi, finds his professional and personal life become intertwined when he is partnered with pansexual Super Cop, Hörður Bess. With explosives having been found at the big football match between the Iceland women's national football team and the mighty Lionesses and bizarre animal fact quoting terrorist Ricky Ferrari having abducted Bess's brother Maggi, the cops have their work cut out for them before they even have a chance to think about love.  A deeply silly film which sends up and pays homage to the likes of DIE HARD and the FAST & FURIOUS movies by taking classic Hollywood action tropes and transporting them to the mean streets of Reykjavik, the director shows just how much can be achieved on a miniscule budget (reportedly less than Halldórsson had available for a commercial video shoot) as we also get strong vehicle chases and a number of action scenes featuring a dynamic camera and well-integrated digital and practical effects. A consistently funny script which almost has the frantic pace of a NAKED GUN movie, there are some excellent supporting characters in Steinunn Ólína Þorsteinsdóttir's grizzled Captain Þorgerður as well as unfortunate crew member Svavar (Steinþór Hróar Steinþórsson) who just wants a little more organisation but it is absolutely Bjorn Hlynur Haralsson who steals the show with a mega-acting performance reminiscent of Nic Cage as super villain Ricky, who speaks English with an accent somewhere between Donald Trump and Steven Seagal. My one complaint about the movie is that a story about one man's complicated feelings about his own sexuality in this kind of setting probably had the opportunity to be a bit more progressive than this actually was; it didn't seem to have anything interesting to say thematically about its premise because it's never treated very seriously like everything else but this is the only action movie I know of in which the two male leads kiss in the climactic showdown before settling down together to live happily ever after. Also worth mentioning that director Halldórsson was until recently a professional footballer and becomes the second director after legendary glove smith Peter Jackson to save a Messi penalty. Probably.  What else would you close Police week out with but a review of POLICE ACADEMY: THE ANIMATED SERIES?. Season 1, Episode 2's "Puttin' on the Dogs" sees the inept officers attempting to deal with cat burglar The Claw while supporting the new canine cadet corps and trying to avoid a**hole Captain Harris who wants them all to fail for some reason. Look, I enjoyed the Police Academy movies okay; I've seen them all and at exactly the right moments in my life to be able to enjoy the jokes in them without having to think too hard about those other staples of 80's comedies, which these movies are no doubt packed with: racism, sexism and misogyny. A rare example of a franchise that started out as a raunchy adult comedy before becoming progressively milder, does that make it more interesting? Probably not. We love to hear from our listeners! By which I mean we tolerate it. Try us on twitter @dads_film, on Facebook Bad Dads Film Review or on our website

Self Esteem is creating pop with purpose, tackling the patriarchy, sexual abuse and toxic relationships to a fun danceable beat. She is nominated for this year's Mercury Prize for her second album Prioritise Pleasure and joins Emma in the studio. The cost of living crisis has been a central point of contention between the two candidates vying to be our next Prime Minister. Emma is joined by Baroness Minouche Shafik, Director of the London School of Economics. Previously deputy governor at the Bank of England - touted by many as the favourite to have replaced Mark Carney as the Governor of the Bank when he stood down in 2019, instead Andrew Bailey took the role and recently declared a recession is likely. Before 1900, a woman who wanted to study the stars had to have a father, brother, or husband to provide entry. Now in a new book ‘The Sky Is for Everyone', thirty seven leading women working in the field of astronomy, who have broken down barriers tell their personal stories of scientific success. Two of the women featured in the book are Cathie Clarke, Professor of Theoretical Astrophysics at the Institute of Astronomy, Cambridge and Professor Carole Mundell, the Hiroko Sherwin Chair in Extragalactic Astronomy, Head of Astrophysics at the University of Bath, and President of the UK Science Council. It's been two weeks since the Lionesses brought home the Euro 2022 trophy. Last week the England Captain Leah Williamson spoke on this programme about the importance of ensuring girls have the chance to play football. Emma is joined by Richard, not his real name, whose daughter played for the Crystal Palace junior team but has recently heard her team has been cut. Presenter: Emma Barnett Producer: Emma Pearce

Having led the England women's team to Euro 2022 victory, the Lionesses' captain, Leah Williamson, reflects on the Euro 2022 victory and answers young listeners' questions. The Armed Forces are not reaching their targets in terms of recruiting women. The MOD is hoping to increase the proportion of women in the armed forces to 30% by 2030 but they have not met the target set for 2020. We discuss with Lauren Godier-McBard and Ria Jackson. It's the end of an era - the actor playing Peggy in The Archers is hanging up her mic at the age of 103. June Spencer has played the matriarch since 1951. Her last appearance was on Sunday's omnibus edition. Felicity Finch who plays Ruth Archer, shares how the rest of the cast has reacted to the news. It's been described as one of the most seismic events of the 20th century, but how did the Partition of India affect women? The split led to violence, disruption and death with women facing kidnapping, rape and forced suicide. It was a time of huge destruction and disruption but it was also a time of courage, compassion and survival of the women who overcame trauma to somehow rebuild their lives. We hear from Shruti Kapila, Professor of Indian History at Cambridge University and Ritu Menon, feminist publisher and writer, and author of Borders & Boundaries: Women in India's Partition. BBC Afghan have a new radio programme called 'Women' which focuses on women and girls, especially those in rural areas. It's presented by Shazia Haya in Pashto, and Aalia Farzan in Dari who fled their home country last August when the Taliban retook control. Faranak Amidi is the presenter of World Service's The Fifth Floor and caught up with Shazia and Aalia. Presenter: Anita Rani Producer: Lucy Wai Editor: Lisa Jenkinson

Having led the England women's team to Euro 2022 victory, Lionesses captain Leah Williamson joins Woman's Hour for a very special programme. Leah joins Jessica Creighton to reflect on winning England's first major trophy since 1966 and to discuss the future of women's football both at the elite level and in schools. She also talks about her passions outside of football, including being a DJ. Jessica and Leah speak to Radio 1's Adele Roberts and Dr Kelly Jakubowski, from Durham University who is an expert in music and psychology, about how you find the perfect track for a celebration. And, fashion and football aren't necessarily two things you'd put together, but they are two topics very close to Leah's heart. She expresses herself through her clothes and will talk about her love of unisex fashion. We will also speak to an original Lioness, Sue Whyatt, to discuss how far the game has come. Presenter: Jessica Creighton Producer: Emma Pearce
