The Patch is a Radio 4 programme which it appears has been around for quite a while, and has 18 episodes to listen to.
The latest issue was recorded around the topic of Camborne, Cornwall.
Today, some areas of this postcode are among the most deprived in Cornwall, and Britain as a whole. As lockdown has lifted, the local beaches have flooded with people holidaying from all over the UK, yet it is said that some children in this postcode have never visited the sea before. The nearest beach is three miles away. Is it true?
An interesting programme on inequality in this location.
