Tonight, We Investigate How The Voluntary Sector Is Playing A Vital | :00:11. | :00:16. | |
Role In Social Care, Following Council Cuts In The Region. | :00:17. | :00:28. | |
We meet the north`west prosecutor in charge of some of the country's | :00:29. | :00:33. | |
highest profile court cases. We meet the Northwest prosecutor in charge | :00:34. | :00:36. | |
of some of the country's highest profile court cases. Nobody should | :00:37. | :00:42. | |
be above the law in this country. We reveal why conserving wildlife in | :00:43. | :00:47. | |
Lancashire is more than just a job stop I never get up and think, I | :00:48. | :00:53. | |
don't want to go to work today. I come out and enjoy the reserve for | :00:54. | :00:54. | |
an hour before work. Local councils across the Northwest | :00:55. | :01:15. | |
are making massive cuts to their budgets this spring, none more so | :01:16. | :01:20. | |
than Liverpool City Council. It is facing 100 and ?66 million worth of | :01:21. | :01:27. | |
savings over the next few years We have been looking at the impact | :01:28. | :01:31. | |
those cuts guitar on the most vulnerable and how charities could | :01:32. | :01:38. | |
fill the gap. Dave and Pauline from crocs are | :01:39. | :01:41. | |
carers. They have been taking care of vulnerable adults by three | :01:42. | :01:51. | |
decades. Alma has been for us `` with us for 13 years and Keith has | :01:52. | :01:57. | |
been with us for 15 years. It is a little bit like fostering for older | :01:58. | :02:03. | |
people. They are part of the family. We encourage them to access as much | :02:04. | :02:11. | |
of the community as they can. Like the local day centre they go to | :02:12. | :02:17. | |
Alma and Keith have always made use of a local day centre, the | :02:18. | :02:23. | |
Parthenon. But along with 11 other council run day centres in | :02:24. | :02:28. | |
Liverpool, is future is now in doubt due to budget cuts. The centre is a | :02:29. | :02:32. | |
lifeline for Keith and Alma as well as respite for Dave and Pauline The | :02:33. | :02:43. | |
centre helps keep them healthy and it adds to the work we do. The fact | :02:44. | :02:48. | |
that it helps them keep healthy it also helps us keep healthy, because | :02:49. | :02:55. | |
we get that respite and that break that the council facility offers | :02:56. | :03:02. | |
us. It is a council facility that is exceptional. But the council has | :03:03. | :03:08. | |
tough choices to make in Liverpool. They say these cuts are necessary | :03:09. | :03:14. | |
because of ?173 million worth of cuts to its funding from central | :03:15. | :03:20. | |
government. If you cut every single service in the council, the library | :03:21. | :03:24. | |
service, the leisure centres, regeneration, you would still have | :03:25. | :03:28. | |
to make cuts to adult social care, such as the cuts to the council by | :03:29. | :03:34. | |
the Government, so it is finding ways to do this without hurting | :03:35. | :03:39. | |
people. We have one of the best services in the country, we have | :03:40. | :03:43. | |
developed that over three years we spent a lot of time doing it and now | :03:44. | :03:48. | |
we have got to the point where we cannot cut any longer, we are now | :03:49. | :03:54. | |
cutting into the bone. The voluntary sector in Liverpool is already | :03:55. | :03:57. | |
helping to bridge the gap in funding. This homeless hostel was | :03:58. | :04:05. | |
previously run by the council, but the salvation army took it over in | :04:06. | :04:09. | |
2012 and have already managed to make savings. We make sure all | :04:10. | :04:23. | |
residents receive quality support. How many people are residents here? | :04:24. | :04:34. | |
There are 26 residents. We operate like schools programmes and | :04:35. | :04:40. | |
resettlement programmes. White is it important to have a charity doing | :04:41. | :04:45. | |
this and said the council M B Salvation Army have centres across | :04:46. | :04:52. | |
the country and head in London, which the council doesn't have and | :04:53. | :05:01. | |
other charities might not have. How important is it for you to be able | :05:02. | :05:06. | |
to use a service like this? They help me out with my money, they put | :05:07. | :05:12. | |
it in the safe, they take me shopping and they do really well for | :05:13. | :05:16. | |
me. They take me to important appointments, because I have been in | :05:17. | :05:23. | |
trouble ever since my mum passed away. I was in hospital for months | :05:24. | :05:32. | |
having cancer treatment and when that finished, I didn't have | :05:33. | :05:35. | |
anywhere else to go. I came here and they have been very supportive. I do | :05:36. | :05:43. | |
think it is important to have hostels run by organisations like | :05:44. | :05:50. | |
this? Because the people here would be out on the street otherwise. But | :05:51. | :05:55. | |
then our concerns has already been too much reliance on the voluntary | :05:56. | :06:01. | |
sector. The voluntary sector in the bubble has always played a massive | :06:02. | :06:13. | |
part in social care. We also sustained those services and | :06:14. | :06:20. | |
subsidise them, and I honestly hold my hands up and say, if it wasn t | :06:21. | :06:24. | |
for the voluntary sector and the work they do in this city, we | :06:25. | :06:28. | |
wouldn't have been able to survive the last three years. Charities and | :06:29. | :06:35. | |
voluntary organisations have been doing their services David `` since | :06:36. | :06:44. | |
long before David Cameron coined the term they Big Society. This | :06:45. | :06:53. | |
organisation runs a shirt like scheme which Keith and Alma years. | :06:54. | :07:08. | |
This organisation runs a shared life scheme. People can see the services | :07:09. | :07:18. | |
still need to be delivered, but without funding, we're not in a | :07:19. | :07:24. | |
position to be able to do that. We know the council and not wanting to | :07:25. | :07:31. | |
cut services, but obviously, they have a budget and they have to make | :07:32. | :07:36. | |
that budget balance, it is how we can work together to make sure we're | :07:37. | :07:41. | |
getting as much out of every pound we spend as possible. The breakfast | :07:42. | :07:48. | |
bar in crocs to this part of that and for Alma and Keith, it is a | :07:49. | :07:54. | |
place they feel welcome. On March the 5th, the council will meet to | :07:55. | :07:58. | |
make difficult decisions about the future of adult services. Until | :07:59. | :08:02. | |
then, carers like Dave and Pauline will continue to do their job as | :08:03. | :08:06. | |
they always have, but with the knowledge that things are going to | :08:07. | :08:15. | |
change. One of the frustrating things is that for many years, | :08:16. | :08:18. | |
council run services have really been excellent and the kind of | :08:19. | :08:23. | |
pressure that is going to come from cuts is really worrying. And the | :08:24. | :08:34. | |
fact that some of the day services are now in jeopardy, what does that | :08:35. | :08:37. | |
mean for the people you look after and other carers? They are an | :08:38. | :08:45. | |
intrinsic part of everyday life and if we didn't have these services in | :08:46. | :08:50. | |
place, the routine which is so important, the benefits we get from | :08:51. | :08:59. | |
the services that add their, they are council run services. We have | :09:00. | :09:09. | |
been doing this for 30 years and I am 60 for this year, we will carry | :09:10. | :09:17. | |
on doing this for as long as we possibly can. We just hope in the | :09:18. | :09:25. | |
future we are not looking at some of the potential difficulties we could | :09:26. | :09:28. | |
be looking at. We will get around these that the cookies, we will find | :09:29. | :09:33. | |
a way of making sure that our service users carry on living a | :09:34. | :09:37. | |
healthy and fruitful life, but for a lot of other people, I think that is | :09:38. | :09:45. | |
going to be difficult. Coming up, getting close to nature at Leighton | :09:46. | :09:53. | |
Moss in Lancashire. There are great wildlife programmes on the telly, | :09:54. | :09:58. | |
but to see it up close through your own telescope is amazing. | :09:59. | :10:03. | |
There are more than a dozen cases of historical sexual abuse still being | :10:04. | :10:07. | |
investigated in the north`west according to the man reading the | :10:08. | :10:13. | |
prosecution teams. Nazir Afzal is the most senior Asian lawyer in the | :10:14. | :10:23. | |
country and has been described as many things. I went to meet him | :10:24. | :10:31. | |
Nobody should be above the law in this country, it does not matter who | :10:32. | :10:37. | |
they are. Having a day in court heating the evidence believed really | :10:38. | :10:41. | |
is important. Justice, to be effective, has to be swift. Murders | :10:42. | :10:48. | |
of these women police constables were nothing short of executions, | :10:49. | :10:51. | |
planned, premeditated and called blooded. We spent generations, | :10:52. | :11:01. | |
generations telling children they should be seen and not heard. Why | :11:02. | :11:06. | |
are we now surprised when we hear what they have to say? He is a | :11:07. | :11:15. | |
master of the sound bite, a natural communicator who can deliver a 0 | :11:16. | :11:18. | |
minute speech without notes and keep an audience in sheet. Nazir Afzal | :11:19. | :11:23. | |
has led some of this country's highest profile cases. He's | :11:24. | :11:28. | |
passionate about giving what he calls a voice to the voiceless, | :11:29. | :11:34. | |
judicial protection for vulnerable, especially victims of sexual abuse, | :11:35. | :11:44. | |
honour `based crime and violence. A quarter of a century ago, he was a | :11:45. | :11:49. | |
humble lawyer in Birmingham, but one with high aspirations and a belief | :11:50. | :11:52. | |
that the world in court could be fair and just. When was the last | :11:53. | :11:59. | |
time you were in court? About a month ago. Nothing looks like this | :12:00. | :12:07. | |
any more. I want to make a difference. If you go back in | :12:08. | :12:12. | |
history, Gandhi was a lawyer, Nelson Mandela was a lawyer, it is not just | :12:13. | :12:17. | |
about appearing in a courtroom, you can make a difference as a lawyer. | :12:18. | :12:24. | |
As a young man, you were bullied at school, racially abused, attacked. | :12:25. | :12:29. | |
At no point did you go forward and seek help from authority, but now | :12:30. | :12:35. | |
you really promote that comedy promote going forward to get help. | :12:36. | :12:52. | |
In the 60s and 70s, it was part of growing up that you were racially | :12:53. | :13:01. | |
abused. I was told to take it on the chin. Having been through that | :13:02. | :13:11. | |
journey, I've realised that the only way you can stop it is by | :13:12. | :13:19. | |
challenging it. Today we're at the Association of Chief Police | :13:20. | :13:21. | |
Officer's national conference on child sexual abuse and here we are | :13:22. | :13:24. | |
in Lancashire just outside Blackburn and this is a very important event. | :13:25. | :13:31. | |
The police lead for child sexual abuse is based here in Lancashire. | :13:32. | :13:40. | |
Lancashire is seen as best practice throughout the country and so from | :13:41. | :13:44. | |
our perspective, it's key to be part of this. Nobody should be above the | :13:45. | :13:59. | |
law in this country. It doesn't matter who they are. Somebody said | :14:00. | :14:03. | |
you only pick on certain people I can't win. I was attacked for | :14:04. | :14:06. | |
prosecuting lots of Asians, I was attacked for not prosecuting certain | :14:07. | :14:09. | |
people. Because I am being attacked from all directions, maybe I am in | :14:10. | :14:13. | |
the right place. We look for the evidence, we follow the evidence, we | :14:14. | :14:16. | |
present the evidence. Delighted to be here. Following the evidence | :14:17. | :14:22. | |
reopening and mounting a successful prosecution of Asian man in the | :14:23. | :14:25. | |
Rochdale abuse trial led to extreme right wing hate mail. The far right, | :14:26. | :14:33. | |
their narrative is all Asians, all muslins are all the same. When Asian | :14:34. | :14:40. | |
Muslim were brought to justice, that destroyed then narrative. His family | :14:41. | :14:47. | |
were put under police protection. E`mails were sent to David Cameron | :14:48. | :14:50. | |
and bizarrely President Obama demanding that he be sacked. My | :14:51. | :14:57. | |
family don't deserve that. I have made choices about the job I have | :14:58. | :15:02. | |
taken, the calling that I have. The fact that they havea panic alarm in | :15:03. | :15:05. | |
the house and additional police presence is something that I have | :15:06. | :15:12. | |
had to come to terms with. I am prepared to take it and I will | :15:13. | :15:17. | |
protect them with my life. My pain and suffering is nothing to the | :15:18. | :15:20. | |
parents of a bereaved child. Somebody said to me I was courageous | :15:21. | :15:24. | |
in bringing that prosecution. The victims are the courageous people. I | :15:25. | :15:32. | |
just did my job. Nazir devotes much of his spare time to helping | :15:33. | :15:35. | |
charities, particularly ones at creating opportunities for | :15:36. | :15:41. | |
youngsters in deprived communities. But he's also responsible for a huge | :15:42. | :15:46. | |
legal team. 700 people across the region dealing annually with 10 ,000 | :15:47. | :15:54. | |
prosecutions. We've the highest profile cases in the country. It's | :15:55. | :15:58. | |
not by accident, it's by design because we have taken on these | :15:59. | :16:03. | |
challenging cases. How many cases of historical sexual abuse are | :16:04. | :16:06. | |
currently on the books? There are dozens around the country and there | :16:07. | :16:10. | |
are more than a dozen here in the north`west of England. These figures | :16:11. | :16:14. | |
vary day`to`day depending on what day of the week it is. It's a | :16:15. | :16:20. | |
growing area of concern in the sense that more people are coming forward | :16:21. | :16:23. | |
with confidence and the courage to talk about their experiences, talk | :16:24. | :16:29. | |
about what happened to them. We re seeing more cases, the police are | :16:30. | :16:32. | |
seeing more referrals and we're taking more cases to court. That's | :16:33. | :16:40. | |
as it should be. Walking for charity isn't something | :16:41. | :16:49. | |
you'd associate with the Crown Prosecution Service but raising | :16:50. | :16:52. | |
money to provide free justice is another of his passions. Even if | :16:53. | :17:01. | |
today his heart isn't quite in it. I must admit I am exhausted today | :17:02. | :17:05. | |
Last night I didn't get home until ten o'clock. I was in the office at | :17:06. | :17:10. | |
seven and had a meeting at nine I am doing this walk this evening | :17:11. | :17:15. | |
Tomorrow it's a full`day's work I have to go to Middlesbrough in the | :17:16. | :17:19. | |
evening. I get home at three in the morning. Saturday night I have | :17:20. | :17:22. | |
another function to go to. Sunday hopefully is a day of rest and then | :17:23. | :17:25. | |
it starts off again on Monday. Mayor, how long are you going to be | :17:26. | :17:36. | |
walking with us? A couple of minutes. A couple of minutes? You | :17:37. | :17:46. | |
have the official car. I'm sure it'll come and pick you up. I used | :17:47. | :17:51. | |
to promote clubs when I was in London. What kind of clubs? House | :17:52. | :17:56. | |
and garage. Most people think house is where you live and a garage is | :17:57. | :18:01. | |
where you park your car. Actually I used to do house and garage music in | :18:02. | :18:05. | |
the early '90s. I love trance music and it really enables me to go off | :18:06. | :18:10. | |
in a world that I am not party to. At the same time I love the Beatles | :18:11. | :18:14. | |
and I am very eclectic when it comes to my music. It probably is the only | :18:15. | :18:16. | |
thing that enables me to switch off. I have have spent 20 years going to | :18:17. | :18:28. | |
court and I always feel a real sense of duty. When you see the tears of | :18:29. | :18:33. | |
witnesses and the tears of defendants and victims, it gets you | :18:34. | :18:37. | |
right here and I think from my perspective you need to do that to | :18:38. | :18:45. | |
see it's not just a paper job. There are real people involved and real | :18:46. | :18:49. | |
lives are impacted by what happens in this business. | :18:50. | :19:02. | |
We've got some amazing countryside here in the North West but all isn't | :19:03. | :19:11. | |
well with the state of our wildlife. A recent stock take by | :19:12. | :19:14. | |
conservationists showed that 60 of our species are in decline. That's a | :19:15. | :19:17. | |
pretty grim picture but as Judy Hobson found out in one part of | :19:18. | :19:21. | |
Lancashire, work continues to buck that trend. | :19:22. | :19:35. | |
In a world that seems increasingly fast and frantic, this place | :19:36. | :19:39. | |
represents an oasis of relative calm. | :19:40. | :19:44. | |
While many of our species appear to be struggling, wildlife in this | :19:45. | :19:48. | |
corner of North Lancashire is thriving. | :19:49. | :19:54. | |
The Leighton Moss nature reserve is approaching its 50th anniversary. | :19:55. | :19:59. | |
Half a century of conservation work which has created this on a site of | :20:00. | :20:03. | |
major importance for a diverse range of plants and animals. | :20:04. | :20:14. | |
It's a rich landscape with reed beds but also woodland, grassland, | :20:15. | :20:18. | |
freshwater and then habitats extending out to Morecambe Bay. This | :20:19. | :20:25. | |
young biology graduate has landed himself a plum job as one of the | :20:26. | :20:34. | |
RSPB's assistant wardens. When I was at university, I made the decision, | :20:35. | :20:38. | |
do I want to make lots of money or do I want to enjoy going to work? I | :20:39. | :20:42. | |
never want to get up and think, urgh, I've got to go to work today. | :20:43. | :20:47. | |
Every day I can't wait. I get on my bike, come here and just enjoy the | :20:48. | :20:51. | |
reserve an hour before work. I enjoy my breakfast here. It's an | :20:52. | :20:54. | |
absolutely amazing place. Alistair, along with the other wardens and | :20:55. | :20:59. | |
volunteers, have their work cut out. Most people come to the nature | :21:00. | :21:02. | |
reserve and think, this is a very nice environment. They couldn't be | :21:03. | :21:10. | |
further from the truth really. This reed bed that we're in at the | :21:11. | :21:15. | |
moment, if it was left to go, It'll dry out and every year it grows and | :21:16. | :21:19. | |
then dies back and it grows up a layer of soil. It dries out and | :21:20. | :21:23. | |
paves the way for trees like these willow to come in. In the winter we | :21:24. | :21:28. | |
cut vast areas of reed bed, rake all that off so that the organic layer | :21:29. | :21:33. | |
doesn't build`up. The reserve opened in 1964. On the odd occasion, film | :21:34. | :21:39. | |
crews captured a slice of life. Here in 1979, they are given a helping | :21:40. | :21:44. | |
hand as the weather hits hard and in the previous summer, John Wilson | :21:45. | :21:46. | |
evangelised about some of the smaller creatures. One of the most | :21:47. | :21:55. | |
interesting groups are the moths. We've in total 300 different species | :21:56. | :21:59. | |
of moths here. We study them by catching them. We use this trap | :22:00. | :22:04. | |
which is a very bright light and it tracks the moths because most of | :22:05. | :22:12. | |
them fly after dark. Alistair now carries on with this great | :22:13. | :22:16. | |
tradition. If I take one of the egg boxes out, I will show you the | :22:17. | :22:22. | |
different species. Just there, look how hairy he is? | :22:23. | :22:32. | |
This is an elephant hawk moth. Very common garden species of moth. You | :22:33. | :22:38. | |
can see how beautiful it's. `` it is. There's a different type | :22:39. | :22:56. | |
here. You can see they are from the same family. They're the same shape, | :22:57. | :22:59. | |
just different type of habitats This one is more suited to the | :23:00. | :23:03. | |
floral areas and this one is more suited to the brick areas. There's | :23:04. | :23:06. | |
another amazing one that looks like a twig. This is a buff tip. As an | :23:07. | :23:13. | |
indicator species of a reed bed these species are doing very well. | :23:14. | :23:18. | |
We're getting newspecies every year and the number of moths we're | :23:19. | :23:26. | |
catching is staying fairly stable. On this reserve, they are doing | :23:27. | :23:29. | |
pretty well. Elsewhere, they aren't doing so well. These aren't flying | :23:30. | :23:32. | |
away because they are too cold to fly at the moment. They'll be using | :23:33. | :23:36. | |
the heat from my hands to warm up their wings. Shaking so they warm | :23:37. | :23:41. | |
their muscles up in their wings There you go. Amazing. | :23:42. | :23:49. | |
For the human visitors, the big attraction is the birds. The variety | :23:50. | :23:54. | |
is astonishing and the mood, not always so calm. | :23:55. | :24:08. | |
If you like bird`watching, if you can get here in spring or early | :24:09. | :24:14. | |
summer, there is one great find The beautiful Avocet. With its | :24:15. | :24:17. | |
distinctive up curved beak, it's one of the great success stories of | :24:18. | :24:20. | |
British conservation and now the emblem of the RSPB. It disappeared | :24:21. | :24:24. | |
from Britain until the 1940s when it returned to East Anglia. Over time, | :24:25. | :24:27. | |
it's moved up north. David has been involved with the | :24:28. | :24:38. | |
RSPB for almost 50 years. All last night's catch will be in that bottle | :24:39. | :24:44. | |
there. Every day for the last 1 years, he's had a special task at | :24:45. | :24:47. | |
Leighton Moss. He counts the number of visitors arriving from the sea | :24:48. | :24:51. | |
and entering the freshwater around the reedbeds. Another 15 or so | :24:52. | :24:59. | |
there. There's one slightly thicker one there. It'll be a feast that is | :25:00. | :25:08. | |
a little older. Eels are slippery. There's a big one. There's a | :25:09. | :25:15. | |
whopper. That will be three years old. This is one of the most | :25:16. | :25:21. | |
detailed studies anywhere in the country. To be honest, the movements | :25:22. | :25:26. | |
are so complex that the more I study this subject, the more confused I | :25:27. | :25:31. | |
become. I guess I'll have to be here still studying eels when I am 1 0 | :25:32. | :25:36. | |
years old. I have a very special bird here which is a heron which is | :25:37. | :25:40. | |
extremely rare and it only lives in these unique reedbeds. They've been | :25:41. | :25:45. | |
trained over the centuries and they depend on this habitat. Eels are an | :25:46. | :25:54. | |
important item in their diet. Eels are the important diet for birds | :25:55. | :25:57. | |
like herons, egrets and otters which are also thriving here. | :25:58. | :26:03. | |
Spotting birds at the reserve is easy enough although some, like the | :26:04. | :26:10. | |
bearded tits, are more elusive. You can always take it easy and observe | :26:11. | :26:15. | |
life from the comfort of the cafe. Webcams offer images of bearded tits | :26:16. | :26:19. | |
glamping here in their stylish man made nests. And then there are the | :26:20. | :26:23. | |
slightly geeky marsh harrier chicks. To be honest, there is nothing | :26:24. | :26:38. | |
better than being out on location. Quite happy to see whatever there is | :26:39. | :26:42. | |
about. Especially this time of year. Even though we have seen a harrier | :26:43. | :26:51. | |
take a baby gull. There's lots of gulls. I was here once sitting | :26:52. | :26:55. | |
watching some babies and a heron flew down, grabbed a chick in his | :26:56. | :26:57. | |
mouth, swallowed it and flew off. All drama is here and there are | :26:58. | :27:14. | |
benefits for those looking on. Studies suggest working and living | :27:15. | :27:17. | |
amongst wildlife is good for your health. What else would we be doing? | :27:18. | :27:25. | |
Better than sitting in front of the television. It's happening live | :27:26. | :27:28. | |
They look amazing down the telescope. You don't get that. You | :27:29. | :27:33. | |
get good wildlife programmes on the television but to actually see it | :27:34. | :27:37. | |
through your own scope is amazing. Definitely different. | :27:38. | :27:51. | |
There was one instance where we were having a meeting in the visitor | :27:52. | :27:57. | |
centre and a visitor came running in so excited. They had been sitting | :27:58. | :28:03. | |
with the family and watched a red Deer give birth to a calf. | :28:04. | :28:08. | |
Absolutely amazing. That will stay with them for the rest of their life | :28:09. | :28:12. | |
and they got to experience that as a family at Leighton Moss. If we can | :28:13. | :28:16. | |
provide moments like that for people and that is why we are here really. | :28:17. | :28:22. | |
Didn't they look wonderful? That's all from us for this week but don't | :28:23. | :28:28. | |
forget you can catch us again on the BBC Iplayer and we're back the same | :28:29. | :28:31. | |
time next Monday. Until then, goodbye. | :28:32. | :28:36. | |
Next week, we discover the artist who has been called the Lowry of | :28:37. | :28:40. | |
Cumbria. He drew everything in sight all his life. It was compulsive He | :28:41. | :28:42. | |
couldn't not paint or draw. Hello, I'm Ellie Crisell with your | :28:43. | :29:08. | |
90 second update. Two women and four dogs have been found shot dead at a | :29:09. | :29:12. | |
house in Farnham. An 82-year-old dog breeder has been arrested on | :29:13. | :29:15. | |
suspicion of murder. He's been named locally as John Lowe. | :29:16. | :29:19. | |
Dave Lee Travis is to face a re-trial over two charges of | :29:20. | :29:22. | |
indecent assault and sexual assault. The former Radio One DJ was cleared | :29:23. | :29:25. | |
of 12 other offences earlier this month. He said his "nightmare goes | :29:26. | :29:29. | |
on". They call it a living hell. These | :29:30. | :29:33. | |
are the faces of men, women and children desperate for food. More | :29:34. | :29:36. | |
than 20,000 are trapped in a bombed-out area in Syria. Just 0 | :29:37. | :29:40. | |
packets of food made it in today. We've a special report at | :29:41. | :29:41. |
