Manage episode 258384769 series 2649933
Olivia and Danyelle live in Leeds and host their own podcast, Up the M1, in which they discuss everything from politics to pop music. In this takeover episode of Original Pilot Material, they find out more about a condition that affects thousands of people in the UK, predominantly those from African or Caribbean backgrounds: sickle cell disease. They chat to friends Anne and Onique about living with sickle cell and how it affects every aspect of their lives. It's a subject we don't hear a lot about and one that Danyelle and Olivia are keen to explore.
