A sneak peek of one session on the upcoming PPA Festival agenda: the Post Office Scandal and the power of storytelling. ComputerWeekly.com's coverage of the Royal Mail Horizon software scandal shone a light on one of the biggest miscarriages of justice in British history, and inspired an ITV drama. Within a week of the show airing, more than a million people had signed a petition and the Government announced a new law. In this session, hosted by Radio Times Joint-Editor, tom loxley, we'll discuss the power of storytelling to galvanize the public and move those in power to take action. We'll hear from the people behind the story: 🔉Jo Hamilton, the former postmistress who was wrongfully convicted 🔉Bryan Glick, Editor-in-Chief of Computer Weekly 🔉Natasha Bondy, Creative Director of Little Gem Media and the Creator and Executive Producer of the drama Mr Bates vs The Post Office, as well as the accompanying documentary The PPA Festival will have more than 70 industry experts across four stages - The Big Picture, Audience, Content, and Product. Stay tuned, the agenda will be announced in the coming weeks. Make sure you join us on 23 April at The Brewery, London, for an unmissable event.
