Gay tourism, Land sales in the Lake District, The cost of a phone mast

BBC Radio 4 - You and Yours, Gay tourism, Land sales in the Lake District, The cost of a phone mast

The value of the pink pound, and land sales in the Lake District.

The tourism trade tries to attract the pink pound. Better help for dementia patients and their families. The cost of erecting mobile phone masts. Selling off National Park land.

Dementia patients and their families are given a boost for calls to let relatives stay in hospitals to help look after their loved ones. We hear from one campaigner who took the issue to the Government in person.

Tourism bosses are targeting the pink pound. We look at how Visit Scotland want to make their country a gay tourism destination.

We hear why the National Parks is selling off some of the most picturesque sites.

Mobile phone companies want to review the cost of putting up mobile phone masts in rural areas, but could that slow down plans to improve networks out in the sticks?

Can you beat the clock and read the terms and conditions before you are timed out by online ticket sites?

And is your financial information as safe as you think?

PRESENTER: MELANIE ABBOTT

PRODUCER: PETE WILSON.
