SIM Ep 903 Chops 276: Still making space for girls

Susannah Walker and Imogen Clark are the two (very excellent) women behind Make Space For Girls, and you may remember Mick had a chat with them a couple of years ago when the charity was just nine months old. Two years on and its campaign to make our parks and public spaces more friendly and accommodating for tween and teenaged girls continues apace, so Mick caught up with Susannah to talk about their recently released Parkwatch report, the fact that most parks have more facilities for dog waste than for teenage girls, and why we’re still in the situation where 90% of the facilities provided are about 90% used by the male 50% of the population. It’s not all doom, gloom and nowhere to go for girls, though: Susannah also has good news. Praise be! Support this show http://supporter.acast.com/standardissuespodcast. Hosted on Acast.
