Due to the current Covid-19 measures we are not able to bring you the usual Helping of History this week.

However instead we bring you Hannah Kate’s other passions: the local community and spoken and written word.

In the first hour of today’s show we hear from John Biggs of Whitemoss Youth and Community Centre about what has been happening at the centre during the Covid-19 Lockdown.

To contact John phone 0161 278 1240 or email johnwhitemoss@googlemail.com

We’ll also listen to content from George Mellings, David Hartley, Sharena Lee Satti, Isabelle Kenyon, Antony Rowland, Marc Nash and Alan McKean
