BBC One - Songs of Praise, Aberystwyth

Claire McCollum discovers stories of hope and faith in the seaside town of Aberystwyth.

Claire McCollum is in Aberystwyth, home to the largest Lampedusa cross in the country, a symbol of hope forged in the wake of a tragedy which shook the world.

Claire McCollum hears the story of the largest Lampedusa cross in the UK, and how it has become a symbol of hope for thousands of asylum seekers. She meets the woman whose vision of a drop in centre for the homeless and the lonely has become a reality. 

JB Gill is on the university campus talking to students about the role of faith in their lives and he pays a visit to the National Library to learn about the Welshman who wrote the much loved hymn Guide me o Thou Great Redeemer.
