Trauma victims Claire Throssell MBE and Joan Lawrence share their thoughts with Michelle Rawlins on the ground-breaking resilience training taking place within the School of Journalism, Media and Communication.
The podcast kicks off with a talk with Bina Ogbebor about International Journalism Week, an annual event hosted by the department in conjunction with The Centre for The Freedom of The Media.
Hosts Anna Jones and Polly Rippon discuss the OFCOM code and how broadcasters, including the BBC, practice impartiality when reporting conflicts.
Jenny Eells chats to Dr Maria Tomlinson about her pioneering work around periods and meets up with graduate Chloe Aslett who tells about how her final Sheffield university project ended up in the pages of The Guardian.
