Podcast: The impact of physical activity for young people

06th August 2024 | Lizzie Homer | Benefits of physical activity, Gloucestershire, Kids, Mental health, Resource, Teens

In today’s episode, we talk to James and Dan from Access Bike about their incredible work centered around young people. Dan, a young rider who joined the group just before lockdown, shares his personal experience and insights on how Access Bike has provided a vital space for him and others.

James delves into the concept of the “third space” for young people and the significance of creating such environments.

Join us as we explore the importance of being a child-first organisation, laugh about the memorable “five to six moment,” and uncover how these pivotal experiences can impact our young people.
