Forget What You Think You Know... explores the social issues that are affecting communities in England on a day-to-day basis. We look at topics like housing, jobs, climate change, public health, social care, and education to name a few.


In the podcasts we interview people facing these issues; policy and sector experts to hear about the changes that are needed; and councils who are working on the frontline to learn what they are doing to tackle them.
