In this episode, Sophie Atkins, our Sustainability Programme Manager, is joined by Tom Hunt, eco-chef, author and climate change activist, to chat about Abri’s Living Well campaign, climate change and eating sustainably on a budget.

They discuss the impact our food has on the environment, and why climate-friendly eating is not only affordable, it’s also one of the easiest and most effective ways to lower your carbon footprint.

Tom also reveals some really easy and practical tips to eat in a climate-friendly way on a budget, including reducing food waste, buying local seasonal produce, and eating more wholegrains, fruit and vegetables.

June means one thing… Pride. So this week we’re celebrating exactly that by chatting with Portsmouth Pride’s, Tally Aslam, and our Head of Central Support Services, Zoë Collingwood-Dane.

In today’s episode Tally and Zoë talk about allyship, how workplaces can support the LGBTQ+ community and how we can continue to ensure equality for all.

This week we’re talking about challenging gender bias in the workplace. We’re joined by our Director of Governance, Legal and Risk, Gemma Burton-Connolly, and guest Kate Henderson. Kate is Chief Executive of the National Housing Federation and a leading voice in the sector for gender equality, steering the NHF’s work in championing inclusivity in housing.

Inspired by the theme of this year’s International Women’s Day, Choose to Challenge, today’s episode is about understanding the experiences of women and why we need to continue to challenge gender bias if and when it happens at work. A challenged world is an alert world, and we hope you enjoy Kate and Gemma’s conversation as they talk about what we all need to do to continue seeing positive change happen.

This week we're talking inclusive workspaces. We're joined by our Facilities Manager, Laura Wright, and guest, Maximillian Mustafa-Holzapfel from Chrysalis.

Laura met Max at a Guilty Feminist tour, where he spoke about the charity Chrysalis, where he works as a Support Coordinator. Laura has since gone on to volunteer at the charity, providing support for the trans community.
