About Are you a carer? Exploring the hidden stories behind the role

In this mini-series we uncover the layered realities of caregiving, exploring the stories of how people become carers, what this means to them and why we should all be paying more attention to the issues they face in our healthcare system. The series has been created in collaboration with people with experience of caring for someone with a serious illness. They are just a few of the 12000 people who Carers UK estimate take on this role each day. Bibliography: Carers UK: www.carersuk.org/policy-and-resea…cts-and-figures/ Tolkien, JRR.

En fantastisk app med et enormt stort udvalg af spændende podcasts. Podimo formår virkelig at lave godt indhold, der takler de lidt mere svære emner. At der så også er lydbøger oveni til en billig pris, gør at det er blevet min favorit app.

Rigtig god tjeneste med gode eksklusive podcasts og derudover et kæmpe udvalg af podcasts og lydbøger. Kan varmt anbefales, om ikke andet så udelukkende pga Dårligdommerne, Klovn podcast, Hakkedrengene og Han duo 😁 👍
Podimo er blevet uundværlig! Til lange bilture, hverdagen, rengøringen og i det hele taget, når man trænger til lidt adspredelse.
