People of The Pool
Welcome to People of The ‘Pool, the Liverpool Business Podcast that celebrates dynamic change makers who are re-setting the narrative about what this city is and can be.
Sophie Wilson, the Founder of PR & Marketing Agency Tuesday Media, is originally from Liverpool, a city known for music, culture, tourism and, of course, football. Having moved back here during the pandemic after living down South for the best part of two decades, she noticed the huge amount of innovation and entrepreneurship that’s happening in the city region. And this podcast is about championing just that.
Join us, every Tuesday, in conversation with the people who have made it their mission to make positive change in this city.
