Episode 27: Mark Riddell

Care leavers and estranged students Season 5 Episode 6

It's the season finale! 

To the end this season of the podcast, we've got something a bit different from the usual student and uni life chats. In this episode,  Paige speaks with special guest Mark Riddell MBE. 

Mark is the National Advisor for Care Leavers for the Department of Education. He has lived experience of being in care and chats openly with Paige about his own experiences and how that has led him to the amazing work that he does today to influence policy and change. 

We really hope that you enjoy this episode and as always, do let us know what you think.
