Clare’s story shows how lived experience, notjust qualifications, can lead to real change.

In this episode, we sit down with Clare, a PovertyTruth Facilitator, whose journey from a nightclub to a warehouse, eventually led her to a role where she empowers communities to influence policy.

Clare shares how her life experiences fuel her passion for speaking up, supporting others, and giving everyone a voice.

Recorded at the Civic Hall in Ellesmere Port, this honest conversation explores the value of every voice, the strength of connection, and the impact of the Inspirers on her.
