Foodies in the Field is taking a (short) break22 Apr 202400:00:50
TRANSCRIPT

Hi, Sophie here as usual. This is just a very short piece of audio to let you know that the Foodies podcast will be taking a bit of a holiday until the later half of this year. As keen listeners will know, I’m undertaking a PhD at the moment as well as working a part time job. The PhD is coming to the pointy end which means my time and brain are almost at full capacity. Being able to do this podcast means the world to me and I want to be able to do it justice and give it the energy it deserves. But don’t worry, I hope to be back in your ears soon enough with more exciting episodes on all the community and public health nutrition work out there. Having you all listen in and engage with the podcast always brings me so much joy. So until then, take a chance to catch up on any episodes you haven’t already listened to, share it with those who you think might be interested and keep up all the amazing work you do in this space.
