Meet the Mancunian: social impact stories from Manchester is an independent podcast hosted by Deepa Thomas-Sutcliffe. Through thoughtful conversations with community leaders, volunteers and changemakers, I explore the passion and purpose driving positive change across our city. Each episode shares honest stories, lived experience and insight into the people shaping Manchester today and strengthening its communities for tomorrow. New episodes drop every Tuesday, starting 18 March. You can listen on Apple Podcasts, Spotify, YouTube, or right here on my website at www.meetthemancunian.co.uk. At its heart, Meet the Mancunian is about exploring the people, ideas, and actions making Manchester a better place. Thank you for listening, and I hope these stories inspire you to reflect, connect, and take action in your own community. Podcast creatives by artist Mahua Roy.

The fifth episode features Mancunian Anthony Parker, a primary school teacher by day and a poet by night. Anthony Parker (https://thepoeticprince.home.blog/) uses his creative talent to raise funds for homelessness charities FareShare (https://fareshare.org.uk/) and Mustard Tree (https://mustardtree.org.uk/). Anthony was inspired by the work of footballer Marcus Rushford on homelessness and child food poverty. From writing poems on commission as thoughtful gifts as a way to fundraise, Anthony is now in the process of publishing his poetry in a book to help the two charities.
