Woman's Hour: Elly Pear, Teachers talk teen mental health, Ebola

Elly Pear, Teachers talk teen mental health, Ebola

BBC Radio 4 - Woman's Hour, Elly Pear, Teachers talk teen mental health, Ebola

Elly Pear cooks, teachers on teen mental health, and the impact of Ebola on women.

Elly Pear on cooking more veg, teachers on teen mental health, the impact of the Ebola outbreak on women, and widows on introducing your family to a new partner.

Elly Curshen, better known on social media as Elly Pear, is passionate about encouraging people to eat more vegetables. She  cooks spiced paneer, spinach and grains and discusses cooking from scratch. We continue our look at teen mental health by talking to teachers about the increasing support they have and want to offer. We hear the latest on the outbreak of Ebola in the DRC, why it so often affects women and what is being done from the woman leading the UK government's aid effort. And, as the BBC 2 series Mum draws to an end, we look at the issue behind it - a widow worried about how her family will deal with her new partner. We discuss why introducing a new partner to your family and friends, after the death of a loved one, can be a tricky and emotive thing to do with widows Colette Jelfs and Barbara Want, and the relationship therapist, Cate Campbell.
