The Girlguiding movement is the UK&rsquo;s largest organisation dedicated to girls with 27,000 groups and more than 300,000 girls. Recent announcements by the trustees of proposed changes to the movement have alarmed many members. Guide leader Aimmee Scholfield and Kirsty Patterson, also a leader and spokesperson for the campaign, explain why they are holding an overnight protest vigil and singalong outside Girlguiding UK headquarters.<br /> <br /> The radio presenter and broadcaster Aasmah Mir was a teenage introvert and loner. She talks about her memoir &lsquo;A Pebble in the Throat&rsquo;, which tells the story of her childhood, growing up in the 1970s and 1980s in Glasgow, and traces in parallel the story of her mother&rsquo;s own life as a young woman In Pakistan in the 1950s before she moved to Scotland. <br /> <br /> Does the key to our happiness lie in &lsquo;decluttering&rsquo; our love life? Inspired by Japanese organising expert Marie Kondo, journalist Lucy Holden has been deleting photos, throwing away clothes and unfollowing social media accounts of her ex-partners. Lucy along with comedian Cally Beaton, a self-proclaimed &lsquo;joyous midlife dater&rsquo;, discuss the pros and cons of a love life spring clean. <br /> <br /> Presenter: Clare McDonnell <br /> Producer: Dianne McGregor
