Does aircraft noise affect your long-term mental health?

Radio 4 in Four

Available for over a year

Summer temperatures might be tempting you to eat outside, but maybe you live in a part of the country where your barbecues are blighted by aircraft noise and where you're woken in the morning by the roar of planes overhead? Some people insist that the noise affects their mental health. The evidence for the link between aircraft noise and depression has been patchy, but a major new study suggests there is a link. Claudia Hammond finds out more. First broadcast on All in the Mind, 8 June 2016.
