In this episode I am joined by the incredible Pauline Roche from RnR! 


From the green fields of Ireland and her inspiring father setting up a local community centre to give facilities to the local village people, to her journey to Birmingham in the 80's. Pauline talks to me about why Digital Inclusion is still not a thing and that we all take the internet for granted.


Pauline's heroics as a fighter for social justice and her passion to involve all in the Digital world left me in awe of her! 


Give this a listen!
