A Matter of Life and Debt

Episode 8 (3x8)

Air date: Aug 28, 2019

In Manchester, super juicer Paula and her partner John are expanding their popular health drinks business. They used their own funds to set up a juice shop, employing local people, but they're already too squeezed and need a loan to help them upscale operations. An ethical loan helps a group of motivational speakers in London inspire the corporate world to show their human side. The Lions Club is designed to help firms recognise diversity and openly discuss issues including race, disability and mental health. And out in the countryside of north west England, we meet Karen who gave up a corporate job to get into photography. Her environmental mission is to show people the beauty of nature on their doorstep – in the hope they will take a greater interest in preserving their local landscape.
