Radio show goes online to combat isolation

Photo shows Social Broadcasts’ radio show when it was previously at The Dalston Curve Garden. 

Social Broadcasts has been hosting intergenerational discussion radio shows Parallel Radio in different locations in East London for over 5 years  now and it has been a wonderful way to bring different members of the community together to discuss universal topics, broadcast live online. 

The conversations take their own course and to be honest the participation is as important as the broadcast 

You can listen to the back catalogue here which is an educational and entertaining listen

To keep these conversations flowing , Social Broadcasts are going to attempt a weekly remote Remote Radio Show via Zoom online conferencing.  The format will stay the same as previous shows – I will introduce a topic and we’ll let the conversation take its course. I’m hoping this will be truly intergenerational as many younger people are also feeling quite isolated at the moment, having to work from home etc. 

If you would like to take part or simply visit the Social Broadcasts website. The radio show podcasts will be added to the Social Broadcasts website
