Karim Rajwani, B.A, F.C.A. C.P.A. ACAMS talks to me of his extensive history in several settings helping combat these scourges on our communities.

Christina shares the work she does with her book alongside the police and in schools and speaks of the power of storytelling around these difficult topics.

The project has changed since the last podcast, in a number of ways.

This allows us to tailor the work undertaken to the needs of the group.
