Episode Synopsis

Next on the podcast, with his ‘Island Story’, it’s Nigel Hartley, Chief Executive Officer of Mountbatten Hospice - arguably the Isle of Wight’s best-known charity. Nigel tells us how his passion for end-of-life care started when a close friend died with Aids in the 1980s. And how his initial career as a concert pianist came to an abrupt end when his hand was shut in a car door. It’s a longer episode than usual - giving us space and time to talk about something we all rarely discuss - death. Hosted by Harriet HadfieldProduced by Alex WarrenSign-up to Harriet’s weekly newsletter 5-StoriesMusic by Mike & Izabella Russell from Music Radio Creative Hosted on Acast.
