Back to Listen to the new series of The Extraordinary Ordinary podcast

Listen to the new series of the Women of the Year’s podcast, The Extraordinary Ordinary.

The Extraordinary Ordinary podcast series shines a light on incredible achievements by women whose passion, dedication and fierce determination has changed society, their communities and the world, in ways that will inspire and uplift you.

The latest episode profiles Julie Siddiqi, a Muslim convert, campaigner and a women’s rights activist with a list of accomplishments so long it would take a whole episode just to go through them all. Among them are Open My Mosque campaign, which fights inequality in UK mosques, and Together We Thrive, an organisation that connects Muslim women to people from all backgrounds.

Other episodes in the new series include interviews with Kate Stanforth, an extraordinary dancer with a disability who established her own dance school, and May Parsons, who administered the world’s first ever Covid-19 vaccine and received the George’s Cross on behalf of the NHS.

You can listen to the podcast series via Apple Podcasts, Spotify, Amazon Music, Audioboom and other streaming platforms.

The Extraordinary Ordinary podcast is brought to you in partnership with Silicon Valley Bank UK
