BBC Radio 4 - Ramblings, Hope Valley with Anita Sethi

Clare Balding joins writer Anita Sethi in the Peak District.

Clare Balding joins writer Anita Sethi in the Peak District. The walk goes from Hope Railway Station to Edale, taking in Mam Tor and Kinder Scout.

In 2019 Anita Sethi was on a trans Pennine train journey when she was racially abused by a man who later pleaded guilty to the offence.  During the attack he told her to go back to where she belonged.  Having been born and raised in Manchester Anita feels very strongly that the North of England is where she belongs and as a way of working through the shock and trauma of the incident she began a journey through the Pennines on foot beginning at the uplifting and positively named Hope in the Peak District. Clare joins her for a hike in the steep countryside to Edale taking in Mam Tor and Kinder Scout.

Producer: Maggie Ayre

Intelligent speech, the most insightful journalism, the wittiest comedy, the most fascinating features and the most compelling drama and readings anywhere in UK radio.
