Carrie asked that we record a new podcast and that’s what we’ve done.

In this first episode I ask Carrie about the two community works she told us about in 2020 to see how these works were still happening.

Spoiler alert: They’re both going really well with some very thoughtful developments.

You can see all the Little dresses for Africa details Carrie chats about.
