The podcast was made during six workshops run by Eastside Community Heritage with a group of carers based in Newham to share their stories and make their voices heard for the caring community.The sound clips used in the podcast are taken from interviews with a group of carers during community oral history and podcasting workshops, where participants recorded each other. These are their stories. You can access a transcript of the podcast here: https://eastsidech-my.sharepoint.com/:b:/g/personal/aiden_ech_org_uk/EWc3irA198VPnVWb6WVim2YB8xO0k7awBREpyi6lyjmE6Q?e=fgKp1c
