  3. Embroidery kit created of the Great Flood of 1607

    In 1607, much of Somerset was flooded - possibly by a tsunami. The event is now a part of Somerset's history and one Somerton resident has used this as inspiration for an embroidered creation. 

    Mary Stirling wanted to raise money for charity so has designed a needlepoint kit, which can be bought to produce a cushion cover, depicting a scene from The Great Flood.

    A woman from Cheltenham who is awaiting her third liver transplant is to undergo a pioneering stem cell procedure to try to save her life - and give her a chance of becoming a mother.

    Alex Keel has chronic liver disease which can often be cured through a transplant. 

    But two donor organs have so far proved unsuccessful and doctors say it's unlikely she'll be offered a fourth if her next one fails.

    Doctors at Birmingham's Queen Elizabeth Hospital are now considering pioneering treatment to teach her body to protect a new organ, which would mean her hopes of starting a family may be realised.

    BBC Points West's Will Glennon has been to a furniture project in Chippenham that regularly finds waste dumped outside its door.
