26 minutes | Monday, 13 March 2023

In case you missed it, Tommy Gale came on the show last week to discuss his career in social work, including what he loves and where he can see room for improvement. Listen back to that fascinating episode by listening to episode 26 of Before Our Friends Die: https://youtu.be/OOHHdaI5j-A
Before we got stuck into our usual get to know questions with Tommy, we learned about his student-led, non-profit project aiming to make Oxford and Cambridge applications more accessible for everyone – www.InsideUni.org
Applying to university can be pretty confusing, especially if you don’t have access to much help. There’s a lot of great information out there, so his aim is to give you the help he wishes wished he’d had.
Nearly 3000 students have given the service their application advice so far and he’s building his website to share that. Check them out!
As ever, we had to get to know Tommy a little more so enjoy this BONUS EPISODE where we ask him:
Who is the richest person in your phonebook?
Who has the most potential that you know?
Who is the most influential person you know?
You are at your best when you are ______?
One thing you never regret doing?
Where do you see yourself in five years time?
What advice would you now give to you of 10 years ago?

Before Our Friends Die is a podcast on the akhi&saltfish Digital Network. The concept is: "Before Our Friends Die, we want them to know about..." and you, the audience, are our friends. Sometimes it's about having the conversations that often get overlooked yet feel urgent. Equally, it can be about speaking to someone who is where we want to be and asking them how they did it.
The Network also features:
- SOFA SENSE'S, where we talk about and to those in, the fight world!
- Cool. Fine. Done. Wicked. A podcast about music we’re passionate about.
If any of those catch your interest, subscribe and stay tuned, we’ve got more coming your way!
