Listen "Four Walls"

Episode Synopsis

Documentary adventures that invite a closer listen.For generations, queer people have moved to London from more conservative parts of the UK, in search of community and to live as their authentic selves. Now, with housing so unstable, queer people are among the marginalised communities for which homelessness is on the rise. They continue to come to London now to find their place, but the trade off is extreme financial insecurity. Can you really feel at home when the four walls around you are unstable? Jesse Lawson talks to Karen Fisch, Topher Campbell, Carla Ecola and Reggie Lennox about what it means to have to choose between one form of home over another.Music by Femi Oriogun-Williams
Produced by Jesse Lawson
A Falling Tree production for BBC Radio 4
