On Weekend Woman's Hour at 4: Nancy Kelley, CEO of stonewalluk gives her first interview since the BBC pulled out of its diversity scheme; we speak about grief and losing a parent young; Pride and Prejudice (sort of); and we talk about poo 💩

Nancy Kelley is CEO of Stonewall, the largest LGBT rights charity in Europe. She speaks about her organisation’s work and gives her reaction to recent high-profile withdrawals from Stonewall’s Diversity Champions workplace inclusion scheme, including the BBC.

This week the cricketer Azeem Rafiq candidly described the racism he's suffered. We talk to the MP Naz Shah and Halima Khan who works in grassroots cricket about the impact of his testimony. For millions of families, the past 18 months have been defined by grief. A growing online community, mainly fronted by young women, is helping others to find support through loss. We're joined by Amber Jeffrey, founder of The Grief Gang podcast, and Helen Smith who has an Instagram page called Lockdown Grief.

Parcopresis is the inability to defecate or go for a poo without a certain level of privacy. The condition is also known as shy bowel and it can stop people from feeling comfortable about going at work, while out and about or even while sharing a toilet with a new partner.

Pride and Prejudice is a sweary, anarchic reboot of the classic Jane Austen novel by Scottish writer Isobel McArthur, in which an all-female cast of five play all of the characters. We're joined by Isobel and her co-performer Tori Burgess.

If Trans Allies have a problem with the questions it's because the contradicting answers are so painful to hear spoken out loud. GetStonewallOut of public organisations. BBCSounds That was a brilliant interview. The first time I've heard anyone really challenge any of the trans cult BBCSounds Amazing. I listened to this programme today and I used to support and regard BBC as a solid and reliable source of information. No more. One sided and shame on you with your constant transphobia.
