DIY Fillers; Barnard Castle Tourism and Apprenticeships

BBC Radio 4 - You and Yours, DIY Fillers; Barnard Castle Tourism and Apprenticeships

A listener says she almost lost her lips after following an online DIY filler tutorial.

A woman tells us how she nearly lost her lips following DIY tips in a private Facebook group. Plus the rise in tourism that Barnard Castle didn't see coming.

A woman who injected herself during lockdown has told You & Yours how she accidentally blocked an artery and came close to losing her lips. The woman found out how to buy the filler through a private Facebook group called "Natural Kaos Tribe". It posts 'how-to' videos of people injecting themselves, and links to suppliers of Botox, fillers and needles. 

The extra boost that Barnard Castle didn't see coming... why an infamous car trip many have helped out traders.

Plus we speak to young people who were halfway through apprenticeships about how lockdown has affected them, and what it means for their future careers. 

Presented by Winifred Robinson
Produced by Natalie Donovan
