Hugh Fort, Rachel Nemeth and Tom Canning return this week with the 96th episode of the Real Reading Podcast.

The latest episode focuses on the tragic events of Saturday, June 20 that saw three people lose their lives, and how Reading has reacted to the terrible events.

There’s also a look at the news Reading and Bracknell’s rubbish tips have been put up for an award, and the important question around what you’d happily queue up for in a post Covid world now a lot of non-essential businesses are reopening.

This weeks special guest interview is with Reading Rock Choir leader Lucy Hewes who discusses how she’s managed to keep things going during lockdown.
