Woman's Hour - 24/03/2010

Womans Hour with Jenni Murray. Including: The painter and sculptor, Maggi Hambling talks about a new exhibition of her work. For almost 25 years, on Good Friday, Maggi has produced an Easter image in memory of her mother. Now, many of the paintings have been brought together in an exhibition in the grounds of Canterbury Cathedral. Maggi Hambling joins Jenni Murray to talk about the images and about her continued love for the Suffolk coastline which is inspiring much of her new work. Children conceived after 2005 with donated sperm or eggs, will, when they turn 18, be able to trace their biological parents. But what if they have never even been told that one parent was a donor? Woman's Hour discusses whether parents should be obligated to disclose that their children were conceived by donor sperm? And has the high street got it wrong when it comes to fashion for older women? It's been some time now since older women were confined to the 'twin set and pearls' but should there be greater choice for the more mature shopper? With many shops blaring out pop music, and sales assistants seeming younger than ever, how welcoming is the high street to older women?
