E41: CHRIS HOPKINS (SAVANTA) - "THE LOSS OF MY DAD IS THE FUNDAMENTAL THING THAT HAS SHAPED ME"
For episode 41, Mark is delighted to welcome his good friend Chris Hopkins from Political Research brand, Savanta. During this episode we discuss fond memories of lads' holidays and their adolescent youth. As well touching upon Chris’ political career, where he regularly features on news outlets such as BBC News broadcasting voter’s opinions on the political landscape. In recent years Chris has personally experienced the hardest time in his life when he lost his Dad, Gary to cancer 3 years ago. Chris bravely opens up about his grief and how his family and friends gave him the strength and support network to carry on. Among Chris’ career achievements, we also cover his dedication to raising money for charities close to his heart, in particular the Huntington's Disease Association after our friend Matt Saines was diagnosed. A heartfelt, warm interview with a very good friend of mine, let’s get to know the life and career of Mr Chris Hopkins.
