On Friday 25th of October 2013 at 11:15am, charity workers aided by the police coordinated the escape of several followers from a flat in Brixton. Some of the women had been held for 30+ years, one for her entire life, but they didn't see themselves as hostages, as having began living life in the commune under a political belief, they didn't realise it had become a cult, under the control of their leader 'Comrade Bala' and a God-machine called JACKIE.

Noreen is in conversation with Mencap Cymru colleagues about the RCT (Rhondda Cynon Taf) Me Time project: James Prestwood, Sian Davies, Gareth Pahl, Helen Mahony and Laura Thomas. We covered a bit of background about the project (which is still under way): what were the intentions, and where have they got to with it? We discussed how co-production comes with uncertainty and how that's not always comfortable, and how they found ways to work with this effectively. We also reflected on how relationships changed, including with their commissioners at the Local Authority. We ended with a few words of advice from each one, for anyone embarking on a similar co-production journey! Credit: final editing by Emmi Manteau.

Join us in a muddy ruck on the halfway line as we get down to the mucky business of finding the worst rugby XV of all time, in the company of award-winning Liverpudlian comic Sian Davies. We uncover the dark, bloody (and occassionally noble) histoy of rugby, as well as the dictators who had a penchant for a scrum and why the key to success includes a skill for amateur theatre.

If we considered that, before approaching any kind of healing practice or regimen, that we first needed to feel deeply safe within our bodies, how do you think that would change the landscape of the healing, wellness and self-development worlds? Would the focus change? Would all the quick fixes and magic cures no longer be a thing? Would the common belief that chronic illness = broken and needs fixing be thrown out completely (I'm already campaigning for that to happen!!) What else would that foundational need for safety lead to? We discuss all - or most - of that in this episode! Leah is an accredited somatic life coach. She prefers dogs to humans, and lives with her two favourite creatures - Rich (her human partner) and their chocolate Labrador Quincy, in Cardiff. Leah's work is about creating experiences that bring people's minds, hearts and bodies into the here and now so that they can enjoy a full-bodied life. She likes to work with quietly brave folk, who have been incredibly resilient, and now they know it's their time to shine.

Today we're joined by primary specialist Sian Davies-Barnes to consider a recent report by the Education Endowment Foundation entitled Improving Behaviour in Schools. We love the EEF because they crunch a lot of research, make it clear and accessible and give us several points of entry depending on how busy we are! This episode is particularly aimed at our student teachers who are just starting their first placements as it goes out, but is equally useful for early career teachers, or anyone looking to distil the wide range of information around behaviour into something manageable. Check out the EEF's report at https://educationendowmentfoundation.org.uk/tools/guidance-reports/improving-behaviour-in-schools/ or follow them on Twitter at @EducEndowFoundn Thanks to Sian for dropping by our studio. Don't forget to tune in next time, when we have an interview with a very special guest indeed...!  

Sian joins James to discuss working class comedy, queer comedy, why Fleabag wasn't for her and she pitches her murder mystery movie set in a department store. It stars not one but two British legends and a character called "ham hands". FilmFour or Working Title to produce with an eye for a domestic sleeper hit September 2021.  

One of the things that gets us up in the morning is helping people solve problems. David Pires kicks off a series of interviews we're calling "Why We Do What We Do" with Sian Davies, who leads the enablement practice for EMEA. Because we believe that if you're not learning, you're not growing.

Sian Davies is off to Edinburgh with a new show that showcases the best of the modern working class comedians. She explains to Mick Coyle the barriers she's come up against trying to catch a break in the industry because of her background. And she reveals how being a working class, gay, female comic stops her getting on some comedy night bills. As heard on Radio City Talk.
