Alive and Kicking-Episode 4

Clare chats to Gemma Atkinson  who is best known for her time on Hollyoaks, more recently on Strictly Come Dancing and of course her abs of steel. She's very grounded around fitness and health. We also hear from Harriett Shawcross who investigates the power of Silence in her book 'Unspeakable' following her own year of silence as a teenager. Plus as it's Mother's Day we look at Maternity Services in Ireland and what’s it like to become a mother in Ireland today with  Fiona Hanrahan who is Director of Midwifery & Nursing at the Rotunda Hospital.
