The Bishop’s Stortford Community Podcast shines a light on the people, businesses, and projects that make our town what it is.
Each episode is a short, relaxed conversation with local business owners, community leaders, creatives, and local legends. We talk about what they do, why it matters, the challenges they face, and the impact they are making in Bishop’s Stortford and beyond.
This isn’t polished PR or salesy interviews. It’s real stories from real people, told in their own words.
What you’ll find here:
• Conversations with local businesses, charities, sports clubs, and community groups
• Honest insights into building something locally
• Regular shoutouts to people doing great work in the town
• A growing archive of Bishop’s Stortford stories
How you can support the podcast:
• Support us via The Giving Lottery: www.givinglottery.org.uk/support/bishops-stortford…
• Local businesses interested in sponsoring future episodes can drop me a DM

Happy New Year from the Bishop’s Stortford Community Podcast
A huge thank you to every guest and every sponsor who’s supported the show so far.
The stories, conversations, encouragement, and belief have made this podcast what it is.
We’re heading into the new year with a packed schedule.
Seriously!
Interviews are already booked through to the end of March, which says everything about the appetite for local stories and voices.
If you’re hoping to be a guest, thank you for your patience. The demand is real.
Right now, time is the limiting factor.
If a headline sponsor wants to come on board as a banner partner for the year, that support would allow me to open up another filming day, record more episodes, and even move into in-person interviews here in Bishop’s Stortford.
If that sounds like you, or a business you know, I’d love to talk.
