The u3a radio podcast, set up in 2020, showcases the amazing things happening across the movement. It’s created by a team of u3a members who all have radio experience and features interviews with members, interest group leaders, Trustees, national volunteers and Subject Advisers.
In this edition, we meet Sohail Husain who made some remarkable discoveries about his family from the First World War, the Partition of India & Pakistan & the Holocaust. We also speak to Susy Hodges about what it's like to be reporting from the heart of the Vatican, followed by a look at the determination and kindness of a lady who embarked on a deeply personal mission to support children living in Romanian orphanages – she really made a difference!
