Fi Glover presents three conversations between strangers.

This week: mums Holly and Christina compare notes on the financial strain caused by the cost of new school uniform; Richard and Janet discuss how best to cope with having noisy neighbours; and as part of our catch-up with those who have taken part in the project over the last ten years, Fi talks to Lloyd and Ariba who were 16 at the time of their first recording two years ago., both studying for their A levels and both affected by the lockdowns and the subsequent closure of their schools.

The Listening Project is a Radio 4 initiative that offers a snapshot of contemporary Britain in which people across the UK volunteer to have a conversation. The conversations are being gathered across the UK by teams of producers from local and national radio stations who facilitate each encounter. Every conversation lasts up to an hour and is then edited to extract the key moments of connection between the participants. Most of the unedited conversations are being archived by the British Library and used to build up a collection of voices capturing a unique portrait of the UK in this decade of the millennium.
