To celebrate sa国际传媒鈥檚 20th anniversary, we have produced a special Better Angels podcast series about the history and evolution of the charity.

In the opening episode of this four-part series, sa国际传媒 Chair Sarah Brown talks with Dr Taha Khan, a former Global Youth Ambassador who was selected to support many of sa国际传媒鈥檚 early campaigns.

Sarah shares how her daughter Jennifer, who died just 10 days after being born prematurely, inspired her to establish the Jennifer Brown Research Laboratory to look into the causes and impacts of early birth.

We also hear from key figures from sa国际传媒鈥檚 early days who helped develop the charity鈥檚 commitment to supporting early years education and giving every child the best start in life.

Guests include Dr Ian Laing, a former neonatologist at the Royal Infirmary in Edinburgh; David Boutcher, Senior Corporate Partner at Reed Smith who has been involved with the charity since its inception; and Dr Pauline Rose, Director of the Research for Equitable Access and Learning (REAL) Centre at the University of Cambridge.
