Active Lives - Right to the Streets

from The GM Moving Podcast Hosted by GreaterSport

What changes do we need to make to create the conditions, communication and cultural shifts that can better enable active lives for all in Greater Manchester? Welcome to the Right to the Streets series of The GM Moving Podcast, where we invite you to join the conversation about what makes our streets, parks, and public spaces joyful, welcoming places. In episode 5, we're focusing on what it actually means to live an active life and what we are learning about what gets in the way. We will be heading to the GM Moving Conference to find out what are the key ingredients to creating the conditions for active lives from the people making this happen. We are also joined by The Guardian's Editor for the North of England, Helen Pidd, who will be talking about how communications and messaging, locally and in the media, impact our perception of safety on our streets, and the challenge of crafting a public narrative that normalises active lives and everyday moving for all, when public demand pushes the press to tell stories which amplify the extremes. ------------------------ Episode transcript available to download. ------------------------ The Right to the Streets podcast is just the start of the conversation and we want to hear from you. Tell us about the initiatives, movements, projects or moments in your community that are contributing to joyful, safe and more welcoming streets for all.
