Our podcast will be running every day throughout lockdown, keeping you company, keeping you connected, and sharing your lockdown experiences.

Host Nik Farah will be inviting a different local voice to take a seat on the virtual couch every day – talking about Covid-19’s impact on your jobs, mental health, relationships, and life-changing events.

We’ve chatted to actor Lee Semley about keeping theatre alive, journalist Danielle Andrews about giving alcohol the heave-ho, Ruth Garbutt – mum of Captain Tobias Weller – about their incredible lockdown challenge, Jane Alflat about her untraditional 2020 wedding, new mum Ellen Beardmore about lockdown maternity leave, and Jonathan Lee about writing a book in six weeks.

Listen to our full chat with Charlotte above.
