Porty Podcast
The Porty Podcast is a community project, highlighting events in and around Edinburgh's seaside - Portobello! It's a very active area with sailing, rowing and kayaking on the Forth, a vibrant artistic community and a strong sense of identity which makes it slightly separate from the other parts of Edinburgh.

216 20 Minute Neighbourhoods
There’s been quite a lot of discussion over the past few months about the introduction of “20 minute neighbourhoods”. In her regular community updates, Cllr Maureen Child has talked about the way Portobello could perhaps lead the way in Edinburgh as most of the conditions have been met. However, Porty Podcast producer David Calder has found that many people locally have little grasp of the concept in reality. What will it mean for them? Well, the Council has just appointed Daisy Narayanan to lead a group which will start to turn the idea into practice.
