Parkinson's disease website, Bereaved customers, Treehouse holidays

Available for over a year

Senior neurologists have told You & Yours they are concerned that a website, which aims to help people with Parkinson's disease, could be offering misleading advice. The site, set up by a man diagnosed with the condition, provides information on a range of therapies, as well as the benefits of a healthy diet and an active lifestyle. It suggests that conventional medical treatments often do little to help, but a leading neurologist is concerned that it could lead some people to stop taking their medication. Britain's biggest banks and building societies are promising to treat their bereaved customers with more care and consideration. It follows a report last year on You & Yours which highlighted how big organisations can sometimes behave with rudeness, insensitivity and incompetence, when a customer says their close relative has died. We ask how a new code of practice, drawn up by the British Bankers' Association, will improve how bereaved people are treated. Sleeping up a tree might not seem the obvious way to spend your hard-earned vacation, but more and more tree houses are becoming available as holiday lets. Some offer sumptuous luxury, complete with hot-tubs and flat screen televisions, while others provide an earthier more rustic experience with twinkly lights and wood-burning stoves. We examine the romantic appeal of a fairy tale holiday among the branches. Producer: Jonathan Hallewell Presenter: Winifred Robinson.
