'... we're just that little helping hand for these parents ...' - the local group empowering young mums in Cornwall

Sunday Breakfast with Donna Birrell

Available for over a year

What would make you walk from Land's End to London? That was the question on the minds of young mums at an event at Falmouth University this week to mark International Women's Day. The event - which is run by the Wild Young Parents project - is all about celebrating independence and inspiring young parents who can sometimes feel stigmatised by their circumstances. BBC Radio Cornwall's Donna Birrell has been finding out more with Sally Crookson from Falmouth University, along with some of the young mums.
