Life On The Edge

A Guardian Hear Here Pick of the Week, this exciting new podcast shares with you the hidden struggles of ordinary people living #LifeOnTheEdge. Brought to you by ice&fire, the UK’s leading human rights theatre company and sponsored by Trust For London, we take you right to the heart of the issues, told by the people themselves. Bob is a real life I, Daniel Blake; Stephanie‘s a single Mum trying to make ends meet; renting in London for Rebecca means never knowing where she’ll be next and Margaret find herself at the mercy of the Home Office. Series one features eight standalone episodes, twenty-two personal stories and collaboration with experts such as Gingerbread, St Mungos, Generation Rent and UK Black Pride. This is the human story of what happens when your world crumbles around you. This is life as you know it… pushed all the way to the brink.
