Room 5 With Helena Merriman
Helena Merriman was on Woman’s Hour yesterday discussing her new radio programme Room 5:
Three years ago, BBC radio broadcaster Helena Merriman received a shock diagnosis related to hearing loss after giving birth to her son. This prompted her to explore how people handle life-changing news about their health in a new radio series called Room 5 that airs on Radio 4 this week.
