Stories of Social Change: Series 4 of the Being the Story Podcast
Statistics and figures are vital in demonstrating what’s going on in society but it’s stories that cut through, stay with us, and have the ability to challenge and change our perceptions on issues we may not have experienced. And listening helps us find the solutions to these issues. There is no more powerful way to hear a story than directly from the person who has experienced it. Series 4 of our Being the Story podcast out this Friday 11th October will introduce the listener to a dynamic range of storytellers who’ll be putting a spotlight on everything from growing up in foster care to solutions to knife crime, restorative justice to ageing well and more.
