Woman's Hour - 02/01/2009

Presented by Jenni Murray. The Diaries of a fifteen-year-old Israeli girl killed in Tel Aviv have been published for the first time in English. The parents of Bat Chen Shahak hope that their daughter's writing will encourage Israeli and Arab children to form links and understanding. Poet Maura Dooley explains to Jenni the sources of her inspiration. At the age of 98, Margaret Miller is one of Britain's oldest volunteers. She runs a stroke club in Glasgow. Joan Griggs is 85 and has been volunteering since she was 16. Both women are members of the WRVS, which has just celebrated its 70th anniversary. Margaret and Joan talk to Woman's Hour about a lifetime of serving the community. Musician and model Judy Liu joins Jenni along with Trudy Hill, a psychologist and life coach at matchmaking and headhunting company 'Seventy-Thirty', to discuss marrying for money. Including drama: Seventy Odd.
