The Big Miss You Podcast

Since March, it’s been impossible for the Big Issue to be sold on the UK’s streets. For Big Issue vendors, whose only income is from selling the magazine, the Government lockdown due to COVID-19 is devastating – both financially and emotionally.

Over the last weeks, we’ve been working out ways to continue selling the magazine. You can now get your copy by subscribing in print or digitally, or by picking it up in big name supermarkets and newsagents. This has allowed us to continue offering financial support to vendors – but we know that the human connection is just as important.

That’s where The Big Miss You podcast comes in. Every week, as the magazine hits your doormat, this podcast will offer a space for vendors and readers to leave messages for each other. It’s a digital version of your street corner; a celebration of the thousands of conversations that The Big Issue sparks each week.

If you’d like to join in the Big Miss You conversation, go to bigissue.com to find out how.

The Big Miss You podcast is produced by Laura Kelly for The Big Issue UK.
