This podcast features the lives of the people who live in Church Stretton, Little Stretton, All Stretton and surrounding villages in the Shropshire Hills.
It's a tourist area and we welcome visitors from all over the world to enjoy the Shropshire Hills National Landscape. You'll find our guests not only on top of the Long Mynd, but nursing a craft beer in a snug country pub or having reasonably priced coffee and cake in one of the handful of tea rooms in town. Millions of fell-runners, walkers, hikers, campers, dog-walkers flock to the Church Stretton area every year.
We are the first village podcast and the first hyper-local community podcast in the world. We are fun, entertaining and informative without ranting, rudeness or intolerance. We're non-political, non-religious and self-funded. We prioritise the quirky, unusual, interesting, funny and curious. We only cover important things if they are also interesting.
We are village people and we want to give a voice to the villages of the Shropshire Hills.
We're independent of any organisation and publish episodes every Tuesday.
We have a website http://thestrettonspod.com/.

There’s a lot of fun to be had at the Brooksbury Fundraising in Church Stretton and then at Acton Scott, it’s a village cricket match. We speak to a couple of tourists who have fallen in love with the area, the ponies and the sheep and for those who want to dabble in decentralised finance, we’ve got a how-to guide to starting in cryptocurrency trading.
If you’d like to donate 10-15kg of clay to Halima Cassell’s installation, check out the missing countried here https://www.virtuesofunity.com/virtues-of-unity-required-locations
