This week we welcome the wonderful Dr Katherine Trebeck who is an author, researcher and is the Advocacy and Influencing lead for the Well Being Economy Alliance or WEAll for short. Katherine is also the co-author of a brilliant book titled the Economics of Arrival.  Katherine shares her own story and about the amazing work of WEAll around the World. Katherine also promotes a compelling organisation in Glasgow as her story of hopefulness and finishes with a challenging question that we all need to be asking.

On Wonderspace this week we welcome Sarah Hope MBE whose story is truly remarkable.

Sarah is the co-founder of Elizabeths Legacy of Hope which provides life changing support for children who have lost their limbs through war, accidents, and lack of access to medical care in India, Sierra Leone and Liberia.

In 2016 Sarah persuaded the UK Chancellor to announce a 1.5 million budget item for children's running limbs and in the same year the Mayor of London launched the Sarah Hope line, a helpline for victims of accidents in London’s transport network.

Sarah was recently recognised in the Queens honours list.

To blow the fuses at the start of 2021 we are joined by Joe Murphy and Joe Robertson who are the founders of Good Chance (@walkwithamal).  What Joe and Joe and their team started in a refugee camp in Northern France has inspired and led to one of the most significant cultural and artistic events anywhere in Europe starting in April 2021.  

In this interview Joe and Joe brilliantly and hilariously riff around our six questions.  For a much shorter version that includes a stunning view of the journey from the UK to Syria plus a short film about Good Chance's walk across Europe then go to our Youtube channel, our Instagram or our Facebook feeds. Alternatively you could do both!  

Happy new year everyone!!
