On Friday 19th August, Tom Jones, one of the two St Anselm’s College students who won the Million Minutes Barbara Ward award this summer for Care for the Environment, was interviewed on Radio Maria. Tom told presenter, Helena Judd all about the experience of receiving the award and about the work he and his good friend Harvey McGrath had been doing around campaigning to make positive changes regarding our environment and the climate crisis. Ann Nichols was also part of the interview, and she gave an overview of the Edmund Rice Schools in England as well as the global network. Our schools have been invited to contribute to the Radio Maria schedule on a weekly basis to catch up with the social justice work they are doing. The slot will be known as “Life Lessons with Edmund Rice”. Listen out for them!
