Manc 78: Anna Jameson - The Broadcaster Making Her Nan Proud

"No one's better than anyone else, everyone's the same"  Anna Jameson is the broadcaster who wakes up Greater Manchester as the presenter of BBC Radio Manchester’s breakfast show.  She’s also a reporter on North West Tonight and you can hear her on BBC Radio Five Live too.   Lisa and Anna discuss how Anna’s late Nan still inspires her, when she’s holding powerful people to account.  Lisa also discovers what it’s like to be breaking news stories one minute, then holding people in power to account and interviewing celebrities the next.   —------------------ Your host, Lisa Morton, started PR company Roland Dransfield in 1996, one month after the fateful IRA bomb that tore apart the city centre.  From that point, the business, and its team members, have been involved in helping to support the creation of Modern Manchester – across regeneration, business, charity, leisure and hospitality, sport and culture. To celebrate the 26 years that Roland Dransfield has spent creating these bonds, Lisa is gathering together some of her Greater Mancunian ‘family’ and will be exploring how they have created their own purposeful relationships with the best place in the world.
