Episode 39: Community (with Michelle O'Dwyer)

Today on Rise we are thrilled to welcome the lovely Michelle O'Dwyer. Michelle is a business owner and CIC founder who provides healthy cooking classes to a wide community of people in need of support across Liverpool and organises a free annual Christmas dinner which last year was attended by over 200 people. She was the perfect person for us to explore the positive power of local communities with, and a total inspiration.
