    It’s our last episode of the series so we are ending on a sentimental note and talking all things youth clubs with famed choreographer Boy Blue a.k.a Kenrick Sandy. Kenrick is a world class choreographer and earned his stripes in his local youth club as a teenager. Youth clubs play a vital role in the upbringing of many young Caribbeans in the UK and in this way are a key part of the village that it takes to raise a child. So now with an MBE under his belt and choreographing events such as the London Olympic Opening Ceremony, Kenrick likes to give back to the institution that helped him flourish and volunteers at youth clubs whenever he can.  This episode was a Message Heard production brought to you in partnership with Catherine Ross and Lynda Burrell of The National Caribbean Heritage Museum: Museumand.

    Episode 9 - First Hand or Last Hand?

    In this episode we're talking all things Pardner: a type of savings scheme that originated in Africa, was taken to the Caribbean by the enslaved Africans and then made its way to the UK with the Windrush generation. Due to institutionalised racism in the UK banking system, people arriving from the Caribbean were often unable to access basic banking services so Pardner provided a great way to save. In this episode, we speak to Paul Henriques, who launched the Pardna App to bring the traditional saving method he grew up with, into the 21st Century.
