Sunny 16 Podcast

Hello! Yes, we're back from an unplanned Summer hiatus and to get the ball rolling we're joined on this episode by an old friend and wonderful person Simon Riddell to talk about how he's spent the last few years working on his Peak Perseverance project, culminating in a documentary premiering on the 12th of September!

Rachel's Go Fund me to help her keep Little Vintage Photography and her darkroom alive while she gets treatment for her FND : https://www.gofundme.com/f/keep-liverpool-darkroom-alive-while-i-get-treatment

Holy Cow where did the time go? This month marks 10 years since two naïve youngish men thought it would be a fine idea to put out a podcast about film photography. Somehow 10 years later that's still the case (apart from the youngish bit).

Join us as we celebrate in the best way by getting the gang back together for a good old ramble.

Foremost thing to know is that Rachel is suffering from a condition called FND which impacts her in many ways, including quite obviously her speech. She talks about this in the show, but to learn more go here: https://www.fndaction.org.uk/what-is-functional-neurological-disorder/
