I've been in the habit of using an app on my mobile to record interviews anyway - the quality is great nowadays - so, even tho I'm a bit of a technophobe, I was able to move to recording most of show from my bedroom, with lots of support from shmu staff, and my teenage daughter here at home.

I spent over a quarter of a decade with addictions and working worldwide in a job I loathed which led to greater money and greater addictions. Early 2017 I committed suicide, 5 operations later I was released after a week, only to do the same again start of 2018.

AiR Volunteer shares their story

I had heard of shmu through Aberdeen in Recovery media group, regarding their show, Recovery on AiR, although at the time this was not being produced. Having suffered addiction issues, coupled with many poor choices, I struggled with everyday life. Through attending AiR, I rapidly improved, and continue to do so.
