The Big Conversation: The Children's Commissioner's Podcast shares the voices and views of England’s children.  In the podcast, you will hear from the Children's Commissioner and her 16 Youth Ambassadors. It’s a chance for them to interview decision makers; to talk truth to power and a chance for you to hear what young people really think about issues that affect them.  The podcast draws on the themes in The Big Ambition and will focus on the most important issues that are impacting young people's lives with solutions developed with children from across England.  Hosted on Acast.
