In this edition of Adventures of Wight, Ben talks to the lovely Rachel Thomson about the charity Pan Together.
Pan Together is a small local charity which exists to support and provide a community hub for the residents of East Newport, Isle of Wight. In this podcast Rachel talks about the impact that the charity has on people's lives. The centre is at the heart of Pan in East Newport, which – according to September 2019’s Indices of Deprivation – is the most disadvantaged area on the Isle of Wight and ranked at 5.8% in England’s most deprived neighbourhoods.

Imagine putting yourself up for selection for one of the most important jobs on the Isle of Wight. Now imagine doing this while you are running two successful businesses, have a busy family life, and you're already a councillor on the Isle of Wight. That's exactly what Richard Quigley, my guest on episode 3 of Adventures of Wight, did in 2019. Richard stood for the Labour party in the general election, eventually coming second.
In this episode, we chat about that experience and what his plans are for the next general election.

Have you ever wondered where to eat on the Isle of Wight, or perhaps you're an arachnophobe thats always wondered if there is a native spider to the Isle of Wight.
In this, the first episode of Adventures of Wight Ben chats to Matthew Chatfield. Matt is one half of the Isle of Wight restaurant review website Matt & Cat and has written over 1000 reviews of Island restaurants. We also talk about his love of spiders, the history of Battenberg cake and the origin of Expresso Martini. Ben also tries to pitch a new TV series idea, badly.
The show is the first in a series of interviews with local Isle of Wight legends.
