Episode 4

Duration: 45 minutes

First broadcast: on BBC One HDLatest broadcast: on BBC Two HD

As she celebrates her 50th year as a nun, Sister Rita battles to resolve the sort of issues seen in hundreds of neighbourhoods across the country, cutting through the red tape to sort things in her own unique way.

As they try to achieve success on a wider scale, the Lalley Centre staff try to encourage locals to take pride in their neighbourhood with an anti-littering campaign - but things don't go to plan.

Volunteers at the centre reveal why they give up their time to help, and the team helps a couple forced to adjust to a dramatic change in fortunes when illness leads to both of them having to give up their jobs and they find themselves struggling to understand the world of benefits. Show less
