firstlight meets...

It's been my privilege to have known and worked with Michael for fifteen years. Michael is Director of School Improvement at Lordswood Boys' School in Birmingham, UK. In this chat, we talk about how the school has become so successful at improving pupils' life chances. There's a little bit about Manchester City too. And an Amazon delivery. (All the views we express are personal and don't represent any organisation for which we work.)

Francesca is one of my oldest friends. She is a gifted teacher and proud of her Irish heritage. In this episode we chat about the upcoming US election. In part 2, we'll discuss the way things stand for Joe Biden in October. Then in part 3, we'll review where we are after the election and what it means for our families and communities. 

Chris and I chat about his life on the boat. Chris is a gifted musician, actor, paramedic and physicist. In this pilot episode we have a thirty minute conversation about living on the canal and some hopes for the future.
