Engage your people

A London impact podcast

Case in point: a homelessness charity's audio journey

A Lambeth homelessness charity wanted service-user stories to reach beyond its fundraising events. The Dagger Listen helped the communications team prepare contributors, record relaxed interviews, and shape each episode around a clear question: what changed when support arrived?

The series was edited with participant review, plain-language notes, and a transcript ready for campaign pages. It gave the charity a respectful way to show progress without reducing people to statistics.

35%increase in monthly donations reported after the series launched

The Dagger Listen gave every contributor time and control. The finished episodes helped our supporters hear the person behind the issue, and our team was invited to present the work at a sector conference.

Clear answers

Questions from charity communicators

Bring the practical details. We will make the production plan easy to share internally.

How do you protect participant identity?

We agree identity, location, and safeguarding boundaries before recording. Names can be changed, identifying details can be removed, and every participant has a clear review point before publication.

Can you work within our restricted budget?

Yes. We can shape a focused episode, use your existing recording setup, or phase a larger series around campaign milestones. Registered charities and community interest companies can ask about our reduced rates.

Do you help with distribution to community platforms?

We prepare platform-ready audio, episode copy, artwork guidance, and transcripts. We can also advise on podcast directories, your website, newsletters, and community channels.

What if we need content in multiple languages?

Tell us early. We can plan translated scripts, captions, voiceover recording, and separate mastered versions while keeping the original contributor's meaning intact.
