Gangs of hare coursers have caused thousands of pounds worth of damage to farm land and infrastructure after about 25 vehicles swept through fields in Cambridgeshire in a single weekend. We hear from one of the farmers affected.

And as part of a week long feature, we're hearing from rural community champions - the unsung heroes who are making a real difference in their villages and towns. In this episode, we visit the coastal village of Solva in Pembrokeshire where 86-year-old Fran Barker joined a handful of other villagers to set up and run a unique support system looking after the most vulnerable people in the village.
