My Friends in the North

My Friends in the North is a twenty-minute podcast series from North East entrepreneur Sarah Waddington in which she interviews some of the North’s leading business and community figures.

Here she chats to Stephen Bell OBE, chief executive of Changing Lives, about:

• Changing Lives and its charitable purpose
• The Theory of Change as a way to transform people’s opportunities, resources and help them achieve independence
• The new ‘lost generation’ of young people failed by the system
• The impact of confused Government messaging on mental health
• The benefits of having a business coach
