Goalhanger’s Greenroom is designed to hold the door open for those who currently feel on the outside of what could be life-changing opportunities working in media. Those who feel like they don’t know the right pePrince’s Risborough ople, didn’t go to the right school, don’t have the right qualifications, or just feel completely stuck.

Speaking on the announcement, India Dunkley — Host of Goalhanger’s Greenroom — said: “Podcasts are, by nature, open and inclusive — and working in the industry should reflect that. But the truth is, if you don’t live in the right place, know the right people, or feel confident breaking in, it’s easy to feel shut out. Goalhanger’s Greenroom is about changing that. I’m really proud to have created it — and I can’t wait to share it.”
