the PPod on location- at the Red Cross shop

This week, we are at the British Red Cross Shop in Swan Street to find out all about how the shop operates. It was a very wet day outside, but we had the chance to speak to the shop manager Vicky, along with her band of volunteers. We even managed to chat to a few customers that braved the weather to come inside to have a browse to see what treasures they could find.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

The P pod at the Sustainability Centre

This week we are on the south downs at the sustainability centre. If you were in the navy back in the day you may have known it better as HMS Mercury but these days it is very different. So we're going to speak to the people who run the courses for schools and adults in woodland activities and crafts, organise music and theatre and provide accommodation to walkers.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.
