Armchair Adventures is an interactive fictional series. It’s designed for families and older people to do as activities during covid restrictions – all to help boost their wellbeing and reduce isolation. In-fact the voices you hear in the podcast are folk who are actually shielding or in lockdown! How cool’s that? More on that here
It follows the story of Connie and her gang of plucky explorers. and each episode is a new adventure, where listeners are invited to dance and sing along!

We love it so much we put it in front of the dudes at BBC Radio 4’s Podcast Radio Hour and Podcast Radio – who loved it too!
Armchair Adventures is really warm, it’s funny, it doesn’t take itself too seriously, it’s not cynical. It’s just a really really worthwhile project.
