18th March 2021

Another podcast episode recommendation, this time from BBC Analysis about the impact of investment in the city of Wakefield.

There are a number of sociological issues raised in the episode from the closure of the pit that once employed many of the male population to the impact of deprivation on the young community.

It could be used for Families and Households, Work, Poverty and Welfare and Education.
