PREVIOUS INTERVIEWS

Rosie Eugenia Nkiruka Okotcha

This Earth Day, Beth will be chatting to Rosie, an advocate for sustainable fashion,  discussing the impact the fashion industry has on the environment and ways we can still wear clothes we love without having to buy new.

Sarah Humphreys from ELOP

To honour this year’s IDAHOBIT (The International Day Against Homophobia, Transphobia and Biphobia), Beth will be speaking with chair of ELOP (East London Out Project), Sarah Humphrys, discussing the great work the charity does for local LGBT communities.

Mikey & Margot from The People Speak

Beth will be talking with Mikey and Margot from The People Speak, an Art Collective based in Aberfeldy Street, Poplar which specialises in bringing people together to be creative and share perspectives. Best known for Talkaoke, their latest project is called Inverse Apprentice, provoked by an absolute disdain for the values inherent in the TV show, The Apprentice. Instead of encouraging participants to compete against each other to win favour with the boss, the project seeks to find a way for a diverse group of participants to be productive together.

Pierre Bureau from Mindful Photography

Beth chats to Pierre, a local photographer and workshop facilitator, about the power of photography as an accessible tool for a healthy mind.
