What is it about working and volunteering that makes older citizens feel valued and Bristol more age friendly? This audio portrait features Marian Liebmann and her poem 'Meandering Ways of Life Paths' and The Ardagh Shed Men and Repair Cafe.

First broadcast on 4th June 2018 on The Babber's Show on Ujima Radio 98FM.
