A magazine programme about people getting together to make a better life - through self-help and community action.

Presented by Helene Hayman

We hear from people in the Omagh Community Development Project in Northern Ireland - they're tackling unemployment, creating jobs, producing a newspaper, running an arts project... and more.

A Woman's Place is a house on an estate in Dundee where women can drop in, make friends and regain the confidence that life has knocked out of them. It's a unique attempt by Dundee Women's Aid to do more for women who have suffered violence.

Made by the Community Programme Unit

Six Films of Early Exploration Introduced from the Royal Geographical Society bv Duncan Carse
1: South with Shackleton (1914)
An amazing film of one of the greatest survival stories of all time - SIR ERNEST SHACKLETON S voyage to the Antarctic in 1914. Sir Ernest set sail in his ship Endurance in October 1914. Nine weeks later he was caught by the pack-ice and frozen in solid. For the next ten months he drifted helplessly with the ice-floes. Then in November 1915 the ice finally crushed and sank the Endurance. For five more months Shackleton and his men camped on the drifting icebergs until in the end Shackleton was forced to make an 800-mile voyage in one of the ship's boats in search of help.
Finally, in September 1916, nearly two years after setting out, the whole expedition was successfully rescued. Not a single man had been lost.
Incredibly, almost all of this historic voyage was captured on film by the expedition's cameraman, FRANK HURLEY ; and the story is told in the words of the expedition members: an epic story of Polar survival.

A dramatisation in seven parts bv TREVOR GRIFFITHS
2: ' Paul had only been in an eating house once or twice in his life, and then only to have a cup of tea and a bun. Most of the people in Bestwood considered that tea and bread-and-butter, and perhaps potted beef, was all they could afford to eat in Nottingham. Real cooked dinner was considered a great extravagance. Paul felt rather guilty.'

The first of six programmes.
The scientific method of investigation is based on testing theory by experiment. Religious experience seems to be a different way of exploring life and its meaning. So how do scientists who are also Christians manage to integrate the two approaches?
