Props
During the pandemic we were asked to isolate ourselves to protect others. But, long before Covid, many people were living with isolation and restriction in order to support someone else. Props is a radio series to spotlight the lived experience of these unsung heroes.
Through the research process, the producers have spoken to carers, Forces families, families of serving prisoners, people supporting a loved one through an immigration process, children of remote islanders, workers from overseas, sending money to their families, people caring for looked-after children in residential care, and loved ones of people overcoming addiction.
