Before we release our Cost of Living Crisis report, our media team thought it would be a good idea to chat about how the cost of living crisis continues to affect people, including those with learning disabilities and autistic spectrum conditions.
They chat about what they spend their money, how expensive things are and what is happening out there in the community. This podcast is part of our Money Matters Project funded by the City Bridge Trust.
The podcast sponsor is the Easy Read Team, group of people with learning difficulties who are experts in easy read and help translate important documents that are accessible. You can find out more information at our webpage:

The Cricket Podcast is produced by the media team of Advocacy For All.
George and Isaac both work at Advocacy For All...Isaac as an advocate supporter and George as a peer supporter.
Every now and then, their conversations turn to cricket. So instead of boring everyone around them, they thought they should try a podcast. Especially as George the peer supporter is the true cricket expert with Isaac as his trusty novice. By Episode 2 they will have come up with a more imaginative name than "The Cricket Podcast". We sincerely hope you enjoy the first episode.
