To mark Coming Out day this week, we hear stories from the LGBTQ+ communities, Dunfermline Abbey celebrates its 950th anniversary, the life of social campaigner Kath Duncan.
As Dunfermline celebrated its newfound city status and its Abbey's 950th anniversary, Tony is joined by the Abbey's minister Rev MaryAnn Rennie to find out more about the Abbey's history.
An initiative called SAWA on the Isle of Bute is helping to integrate refugees into the community. Project Manager Hugh Reed OβHagan and Owain Jones, Minister of the United Church of Bute discuss the challenges and successes of integrating that SAWA has faced.
When former Prime Minister Gordon Brown recently stepped in to help save one of the largest food banks in the UK it also brought to light the story of an extraordinary Scottish woman. Kath Duncan, a social justice campaigner who was involved in many of the key social movements of the early 20th century. Ray Barron-Woolford tells Tony about her fascinating life.
On the eve of World Mental Health Day, Tony examines what can be done to safeguard young people online with Kira McDiarmid from Support in Mind Scotland, and Sue Jones of the charity Ditch the Label.
A new ΒιΆΉΤΌΕΔ Scotland documentary, Being Jewish in Scotland, takes a look at what it means to have a strong cultural identity within a country where you are a minority. Rabbi Mark Solomon of Sukkat Shalom Edinburgh, the Edinburgh Liberal Jewish Community, and Scotland senior educator at UJIA, Sydney Switzer give their thoughts.
This Tuesday marks National Coming Out Day. For many members of the LGBTQ+ community the decision to come out can be a daunting process no matter your age, with no two people quite following the same journey. Tony hears two powerful personal experiences from content developer Sam Pirie and social care worker Hilary Wilson.
