Thanks so much for tuning into series two of On The Outskirts - we hope you're all doing okay out there & we hope this first episode acts as a little bit of comfort this week... There’s no doubt that 2020 has felt particularly heavy. With this in mind, we have really been thinking about how we can utilise our platforms in a more balanced and resourceful way.

Another Episode and another meaty topic to sink our teeth into. This episode we discuss women’s health in the boarder sense of the word because there’s just so much we wanted to mention and highlight realistically we couldn’t possibly fit it all into one show. This is a subject which is not only close to both our hearts, but one we strongly feel needs talking about more openly in order to breakdown any barriers which can often make women feel alienated and self conscious. We hope to revisit...

Whether it's on the big screen or our phone screens - we are always looking for women who shake up the rules and help redefine how women are viewed by the world. The media is such a powerful tool, but we...
