BBC Radio 4 - Woman's Hour, Author, Chimamanda Ngozi Adichie

Author Chimamanda Ngozi Adichie and 'Notes on Grief'; 'Valuing Everyone': a course on appropriate behaviour with colleagues; Parm Sandhu - 30 years in the Met Police; summer legs.Chimamanda Ngozi Adichie is the author of novels including 'Purple Hibiscus', 'Half of a Yellow Sun', which won the Orange Prize , and 'Americanah', which won the US National Book Critics Circle Award.

Lord Michael Heseltine, who was Deputy Prime Minister in the mid-nineties, says he's had to attend a House of Lords course to do with what's right and what's wrong when it comes to conduct between colleagues, especially between men and women. The training is called "Valuing Everyone". The House of Lords has been very firm about this online course on inappropriate behaviour and prejudice, saying all peers must attend.

Parm Sandhu grew up in the Midlands - a child of immigrants from the Punjab whose main ambition for her she says was to become an ‘obedient wife’. Forced into an arranged marriage at 16 she later fled to London and in 1989 joined the police.
