    • Meet Keith - From Cape Town everyman to community Reverend
      Jun 6 2023

      Growing up in apartheid South Africa, the young Keith Rosen knew little of England or of organised religion. Today, as The Fed's Religious Director, Reverend Rosen plays one of the most crucial roles in the pastoral care that the organisation carries out.

      How this transformation came about is as fascinating as any story we've told on the podcast, and one which will surprise even the many people who count Revered Rosen as a colleague and friend.

      Told in his warm, lilting Cape Town accent, Reverend Rosen takes us through his sports- and outdoor-mad upbringing under the shadow of Table Mountain, through the years of reintroduction to his Judaism and finally to an almost entirely spontaneous move to the UK.

      Meaningful and emotionally charged, this episode of Humans of The Fed shines a light on one of the individuals whose work - often behind-the-scenes - is so vital to The Fed's success.

    • Meet Simon - A life in pictures
      Apr 27 2023

      This week we present one of the most moving podcasts we've recorded, and so poignant coming just after Yom HaShoah.

      Simon Hill HonFRPS was given his first camera at the age of four. 

      In the intervening half century, his photography career has sent him around the world, allowed him to mingle with royalty, and become the president of the Royal Photographic Society of Great Britain.

      And yet were it not for a sequence of unexpected events he would possibly not have ever returned to the UK, reconnected with the society of which he had been a member for so long and risen to its highest position. He also would have almost certainly never have heard of The Fed.

      Simon's involvement with The Fed's My Voice Project opened his eyes to the experiences and testimonies of Holocaust survivors across the north of England, and the photographs he contributed to the 'Generations: Portraits of Holocaust Survivors' exhibition at the Imperial War Museum brought him into contact with those cherished and honoured Survivors which the My Voice project serves.

      Part tech-heavy and part humanities-focused, Simon's conversation provides a window into the world of one of this country's most esteemed photographers, with a healthy dose of humour and self-deprecation along the way. It also offers a reminder, if it were ever needed, how honoured The Fed is to preserve the life stories of our Survivors, and how invaluable and timeless the work of the My Voice project is.

    • Meet Ben - Standing tall for The Fed
      Feb 15 2023

      Today we've got a bit of a first...

      We have a volunteer, a fundraiser and a member of The Fed's Bar and Bat Mitzvah program all rolled into one, and just 12 years old!

      Ben Sarak is the son of Natasha, a member of The Fed's fundraising team, but far from talking about his mum's experiences, Ben has already got a wealth of Fed history all of his own.

      Throughout today's episode what was apparent was Ben's genuine admiration and love for this organisation, and if we can get that strength of feeling and sense of ownership into a 12 year old, we must be doing something right! 

      Very entertaining and often moving, enjoy Humans' youngest guest so far as he shares memories of his grandpa, his first impressions of Heathlands Village, and why supporting The Fed is a passion so close to his heart, helping him raise thousands of pounds towards our essential services.
