Special episode: Talking About Voices

“This is my voice, not your voice, so if you’ve got a problem with my voice… I don’t know, go to therapy or something.”

As well as making Accentricity, I work on the Manchester Voices project at Manchester Metropolitan University, with Rob Drummond and Holly Dann. During the COVID-19 pandemic, we ran a podcasting course and competition for schools called Talking About Voices. This is a special episode announcing the competition winners.

If you’re a teacher in a school in Greater Manchester, email manchester.voices@mmu.ac.uk to ask about taking part in Talking About Voices round 2 in the coming school year. If you’re a pupil, or if you have a young person in your life who would love this, ask their teacher to get in touch.

If you live in Greater Manchester, there are various ways you can get involved in our research right now! Just go to www.manchestervoices.org to get started.

Manchester Voices is funded by the Arts and Humanities Research Council.
