Producer of oral history, podcasts and children’s radio clubs. Passionate about stories, memories, reminiscence and sharing experiences across the generations.
Wonderful to be present for the unveiling of the new sculpture and interpretation panel in MECO Memorial Nature Park today.
The sculpture was unveiled by Irene, who shared her memories of the 1940 bombing raid (in which 7 people sadly lost their lives) with us a few weeks ago.
