Positive Solace with Attika Choudhary
In March 2020, the UK went into lockdown as did most of the world. As people reached out to Attika, about feeling anxious and confused, she wanted to do something helpful and the “Positive Solace” podcasts were born. Mental health has been her concern for some years and this led to the creation of a team which would make it happen.
Hosted by BBC’s Attika Choudhary, Positive Solace is a podcast that will empower your mind, spread positivity and wisdom. The guests are from different backgrounds, cultures, experience and learning. In their own, unique way they are doing what they can to help their community overcome the challenges and lead people to a better place. The conversations are not scripted: they are raw and show vulnerability and create a place where these voices can empower us all. So come join us as we laugh, get emotional and travel the world!

Politics Solace: UK Post-Election Special
You may be wondering what the future holds for the UK, following this week's General Election results. The Labour Party's landslide win, the decimation of the previously-ruling Conservatives and Scottish Nationalists, a small but undoubtedly loud smattering of far-right Reform UK representatives and the notable collective of pro-Palestine activists will all take the shape of the next Parliament.
In the concluding part of our Politics Solace election specials, Attika and Tom are joined by Sir Gerald Howarth - a former Government Minister and Conservative MP for Aldershot from 1997-2017, Nigel Griffiths - former Deputy Leader of the House of Commons and Labour MP for Edinburgh South between 1987-2010, and Charlotte John, from the organisation Simple Politics.
