**Making the World Better, a new social change podcast series, has launched from
Richard Docwra, Director of fundraising and social change agency ChangeStar and 
founder of not-for-profit Life Squared. **

In the podcast Docwra talks to people who are making the world better, from a global
to a local level, exploring what these people do, the issues they are working on
and why they matter. This podcast aims to inspire and pay tribute to everyone who
is trying to make things better.

Running fortnightly, each episode has a different guest, with the first few shows
including CEOs of leading charities, political advisors, academics, fundraisers,
and people working to help others in their local communities.
