Episode EIGHT: Tez Ilyas on COVID-19

Tez Ilyas is a stand-up comedian and worked with Jeremy Corbyn during the UK election campaign at the end of 2019. Tez is such a bundle of joy to speak to, you can hear right from the beginning how he made me laugh - something I needed after a day at work! But Tez is also very aware of what’s happening to the public, the frontline staff, and within the government. He’s publicly offered to help so many people on social media and support people like me in the creative industry during this time, it’s truly incredible to see!  You can find out more about Tez and his upcoming tours here: www.tezilyas.com

Thank you for joining me on this podcast! My name is Dr Meenal Viz and I'm an NHS doctor and activist. My love for sharing stories and using that as a medium to help people is one that brings me a lot of joy and it all ties in with the one dream I had as a child - to serve the global community. During the COVID-19 pandemic, I campaigned for the protection of healthcare workers and was recognized internationally for my activism and campaigning. Through this podcast, I speak to the greatest thinkers of our generation. Each and every one of us has the potential to create change - I hope this podcast brings you the ray of hope you've been looking for.
