We look at the trauma faced by West Country families with no news about loved ones caught up in the South Asia earthquake.

In the aftermath of the October earthquake disaster, money and support are desperately needed to help the victims of the crisis.

Help is also needed for those still living in the worst-hit areas of Pakistan to help them get back on their feet.

We look at how families in the region are responding to the disaster, and how they are coping with their fears about relatives missing in the aftermath of the earthquake.

In Bristol a small community radio station has found itself plunged into the aftermath of the earthquake.

The volunteers at Radio Ramadhan thought they would be broadcasting a month of prayers and community programmes, but instead the airwaves have become the focus for a major fundraising effort.

Inside Out follows the Radio Ramadhan team as they organise collections for the relief operation, and try to gather information about what's happening in the earthquake affected area.

The local Imam tries to answer listeners' questions about how Allah could allow this to happen, particularly during Ramadhan.
