Catch22 believes that in order to thrive, people need the 3Ps: good people around them, a safe place to live, and a purpose in life. Delivering public services across the UK, Catch22 works to achieve these 3Ps across the employability, justice, education and social care sectors.
In the Catch22Minutes podcast, we delve into some of today’s major social challenges. We speak to frontline experts, industry leaders and young people, in pursuit of ideas for reforming public services.
