Nourished and Nurtured

Using medicinal herbs and plants has been a major part of all people's lives, including Travellers', for thousands of years.

In this Travelling Voices radio programme Emma, Liz and Georgie explain how herbal knowledge and medicine have shaped their lives and played a major role in each of their families. They also look at the threats of knowledge loss and interference from the big pharmaceutical industry, and share some of their own families' favourite cures.
