    Engineers, Phoebe Waller-Bridge, Music, Dementia
    Phoebe Waller-Bridge, scriptwriter and lead actor for the series ‘Fleabag’ has won three separate awards at this year’s Emmys. She won the best lead actress in a comedy series, and best writing. The show also won for best comedy. So what is it about this show that struck a chord with so many? Where might Phoebe Waller-Bridge be going next? TV critic Emma Bullimore will be speaking to Jenni, along with Hetta Howes, lecture in literature from the City University of London. Tomorrow is BBC Music Day, an annual celebration across the corporation about the power of music to change lives. On Woman’s Hour we’re hearing from people who live with dementia and about how music helps them cope. Shelagh is 79, from Madeley in Staffordshire where she lives with her husband Paul, who also has dementia. Woman’s Hour first met Shelagh at a Dementia Diaries event in Birmingham. The group record their experiences about living with dementia and post on dementia diaries.org. Henrietta Harrison went to meet Shelagh in her home and found out how Irish Republican protest songs transport her back to her childhood. Due to an error in this version the music used is not Boolavogue by The High Kings, instead we have used Ireland’s Call by The High Kings. It has been corrected here https://www.bbc.co.uk/programmes/p07pc3t4One hundred years ago, the Women’s Engineering Society was formed. In a new book ‘Magnificent Women and their Revolutionary Machines’, Henrietta Heald charts the history of the society and the pioneering women who excelled in engineering – often against the odds. Henrietta joins Jenni to discuss. How do you inspire your child to take up a musical instrument or learn to sing? What are the best instruments to learn and how do you help keep their interest should practising become a chore? Jenni speaks to Molly Newton, a music teacher based in York.

    History of Knitting, Labour Conference 2019, US Black Maternal Health Clinic
    It is widely expected that continuing conflict over Brexit will result in an early general election. Research suggests that younger women who vote Labour are more likely to favour remaining in the EU, while many of the Labour Party’s older female voters and traditional voters are thought to have backed Leave in 2016. So, how will Labour Party appeal to all of its women supporters? On Woman's Hour this week we’re hearing from people with dementia about how music helps them cope. The Alzheimer's society organises Singing for the Brain groups across the country. Henrietta Harrison went along to one of them in Hackney in North London and met two daughters who are caring for their mothersJennie Joseph is a UK trained midwife whose work has successfully reduced maternal and perinatal mortality in the most vulnerable groups of women in the US. Her community based maternity centre in Orlando, the JJ Way, offers free care to all women and has dramatically improved outcomes for mothers and their babies. And The Birthplace, a clinic founded around her model of care has become a renowned pregnancy care centre. So what might the UK learn from work now being done in the US where black women of all backgrounds have long faced a much higher risk of maternal death than white women?When Esther Rutter received a gift of some unusual Shetland wool, she was unsure what to make with it, and so set out on a voyage of discovery through the knitting history and culture of the British Isles. On the way, she discovered the secret feminist history of knitting.Presenter: Jane Garvey Interviewed guest: Anneliese Dodds Interviewed guest: Jennie Joseph Interviewed guest: Esther Rutter Reporter: Henrietta Harrison Producer: Lucinda Montefiore
