Episode 7 - Caring for the Carers: A Conversation with the Bishop of London and Carers UK

In this episode recorded over the summer, the Bishop of London and Helen Walker, CEO of Carers UK, join us for a powerful conversation about the realities facing the UK’s unpaid carers. They explore who carers are, the challenges they face, and what needs to change to offer them better recognition, support, and respite. Together they discuss the role of policy, community, and the Church in ensuring carers are no longer the forgotten backbone of our society.

Racial justice is the theme of a new, lively and enlightening podcast episode from Bishop Sarah.

Episode 2 - Wellbeing and the importance of rest

By the time you receive this I will be on Study Leave, so it seems appropriate that the theme of this second podcast is ‘wellbeing’. This conversation with Kiah Holley, a member of The Old Deanery team, was recorded just before Easter and explores some of the factors which impact on our ability to thrive as human beings, as well as in our ordained ministries.

Episode 1 - Creation Care

As we begin the penitential season of Lent I have beenreflecting on our responsibility to care for God’s creation, to repent of the damage we have caused, and to find ways of working together for the healing and regeneration of the natural environment.  In this conversation with Kiah Holley, a member of theOld Deanery team, I explore what we can do individually, as church communities and as a Diocese. I am grateful to Martin Carr from the Compassionate Communities team for the way in which he shaped the thinking behind this podcast.
