About This Podcast
Think of us as a "Podcast On Wheels", a non-profit, trying to end isolation, one conversation at a time.
Around 1.4 million people over 70 in England are chronically lonely. Sometimes, a simple conversation is all it takes to change that. Behind every older person is a lifetime of incredible stories, wisdom, and experiences waiting to be heard.
We’re on a mission to showcase this remarkable generation and give them the voice they deserve, because nobody should ever feel invisible or alone.
