Caring for a loved one with MND - An Interview with Rita Holden

In one of the greatest miscarriages of justice in modern British history, hundreds of ordinary people found their lives shattered by the Post Office scandal. Among them was Tom Hedges — a man who went from trusted subpostmaster to accused criminal almost overnight.

This podcast tells Tom’s story. Not just the facts of the injustice he endured, but the quiet, human journey that followed. Faced with loss, isolation, and the weight of a system that refused to listen, Tom turned inward — toward his faith, and toward the unwavering love of his family and friends.

Through their support, and through his relationship with God, Tom found a way to endure what once seemed unbearable. This is a story about injustice, yes — but also about resilience, forgiveness, and the strength we find in the people who refuse to let us stand alone.

In this episode, we speak with OS Harry Meade, who became visually impaired soon after leaving Stonyhurst. He reflects on his school years, his diagnosis of retinitis pigmentosa, and how he’s stayed active despite losing most of his sight.

Harry shares highlights from his international career in tourism and his later work with Action for Blind People and the RNIB, where he helped secure major funding for children’s sport and employment programs. Drawing on values shaped at Stonyhurst, he talks about resilience, purpose, and the importance of getting involved and asking for help when needed.

In this Hear My Voice episode, we talk with Kiki Deville about her son Dexter, who died at four weeks old from Zellweger syndrome. Kiki shares Dexter’s legacy, her journey through grief, and how writing a song for him led to the creation of The Keepsake Circle, where she now crafts music to help bereaved families remember their children.

We explore how these songs open space for families to speak about their children, often with surprising joy, and the vital support offered by hospices like Darian House. Kiki’s mission is to ensure every child remains part of their family’s story—no matter how short their life.
