    S2 E3 - Phones in school

    In this episode of the Central Bedfordshire Youth Voice Podcast, we’re talking all things mobile phones in school. Should they be allowed? Are they a distraction or a useful tool? We hear different views from young people and explore how schools are handling phone use, the impact on learning, and what the rules should be. Tune in for an honest chat on a topic that affects students every day.

    S2 E2 - Toilets, Knife Crime, & Wellbeing

    In this episode of the Central Bedfordshire Youth Voice Podcast, we tackle three important topics raised by local young people. We start with a discussion on toilets in school and why access matters more than you might think. Next, we explore concerns around knife crime—what’s happening, how it’s affecting communities, and what can be done. Finally, we talk about wellbeing, looking at what support is available and how young people can look after their mental health. Real issues, real voices—tune in now.

    Introducing...

    The first ever episode of this BRAND NEW Youth Voice podcast - giving voice to young people in Central Bedfordshire. Find out a little about who we are and what we are doing with our own podcast. As the first (and therefore original ) hosts of this podcast we thought we'd tell you a little about ourselves, how we got involved with Youth Voice, and what our vision for this podcast is, also how you can get involved with the podcast.  Please listen and get involved with our future episodes as we can only give voice to young people if YOU share your voice with us first!
