Who are the Movers and Shakers?
Listen now
Description
In a quiet back corner of a pub in leafy Notting Hill, six friends share a drink and their experiences of life. They are the Movers and Shakers: Rory Cellan-Jones, Gillian Lacey-Solymar, Mark Mardell, Paul Mayhew-Archer, Sir Nicholas Mostyn, and Jeremy Paxman. They are united by two things: their fascinating and wide-ranging careers, and having Parkinson's disease. In this first episode of Movers and Shakers, the gang introduce themselves and their experiences with the condition. Honest yet uplifting, this will be a balm to people with the condition, their friends and family, and a source of enormous interest and empathy for those on the outside of the community. Presented by Rory Cellan-Jones, Gillian Lacey-Solymar, Mark Mardell, Paul Mayhew-Archer, Sir Nicholas Mostyn, and Jeremy Paxman. Produced and edited by Nick Hilton for Podot. Music by Alex Stobbs. Artwork by Till Lukat. PR by Sally Jones. Movers and Shakers is generously sponsored by Boardwave, high powered Executive networking programme for European Software CEO, Non-Exec Directors, Chairs and their Investors. They are keen supporters of Cure Parkinson's. To find out more, visit https://cureparkinsons.org.uk/ Hosted on Acast. See acast.com/privacy for more information.
