Caty leads us through a conversation with Hannah (manager) and Chris (volunteer) from the Askefield Social Farm project. Hear about the innovative ways that they are supporting wellbeing from babies to pensioners, how they've used different funding, what outcomes they have had for people and how volunteering has a real impact on people's health. It's Top Gear on the farm and another example of working differently! Check out the Toylander here: https://youtu.be/0ZcWDTj-zz0

So, you think that you know sleep is important but then... Matt is joined by Becky (School teacher and Sleep Practitioner) and Adrian (CEO, British Society of Pharmacy Sleep Services) for a discussion about sleep including the importance of routines, impact on children, blue light myths and over-the-counter sleep aids. Both guests live and work in Lincolnshire!

Becky offers support for families via: www.the3amclub.org where parents can get 1:1 support for children who are having sleep difficulties. Adrian has a book out. DOZE AND DIE: A Deadly Wake-Up Call. Which explores the hidden connection between undiagnosed sleep disorders and chronic diseases through fictional characters. https://amzn.eu/d/52Efbki

In the first of this two-parter, Matt is joined by Ed (Practice Advisor, Children's Services) and Ela (Improvement Practice Lead and Expert by Experience) from Lincolnshire County Council to learn about anti-racist practice. We hear some difficult local realities and we find out some of the work that is going on to make things better for people living and working in Lincolnshire. Listen in and consider the complexity of this topic and ask yourself what you can do. It's all about people!
