The former Chief Constable of Northumbria Police, Sue Sim, became a familiar public face five years ago in July 2010 as she led the manhunt for Raoul Moat. It was the largest manhunt the country had seen for 44 years, and, as she said, 鈥渙ne of the most challenging times鈥� of her career since she joined the force 30 years previously. However following the operation, she faced allegations by mostly male officers of bullying and an aggressive management style. An investigation into the allegations cleared her of misconduct in April, but criticised her management style, and now Sim has lodged a complaint against her accusers, and claims that male officers treated her differently because she was a woman. Having retired from her role in June, Sue Sim now joins Jane Garvey to describe leading the Raoul Moat manhunt, and how she feels about the complaints which were made against her.

Health and fitness apps are big business, making it easy to track the calories you eat and expend through exercise and to set goals to achieve weight loss. However they can also be used in an obsessive and unhealthy way by people with eating disorders. After a recent discussion about anorexia on Woman鈥檚 Hour, a listener got in touch to raise her concern about the potential for health apps, used to track diet and exercise, to be used in a damaging way. We speak to Deanne Jade - a psychologist and founder of The National Centre for Eating Disorders, who has seen a rise in patients using these apps -and to former anorexia sufferer Holly, who felt the app she used became an unhealthy obsession and spurred her on to lose unhealthy amounts of weight.
