This week on Talking in the Dark, host Evie sits down with Peter Hodgson – founder and charity manager of the inspiring Isle of Man Youth Motor Project (IOM YMP).

In this insightful and uplifting episode, Peter shares the story behind the charity’s beginnings, the range of hands-on activities it offers to young people on the Isle of Man, and the mission that drives it forward.

He also highlights the life-changing impact the project has had on its participants and the powerful partnerships it has built with other local organisations over the years.

Whether you're curious about how the IOM YMP nurtures, motivates, and educates vulnerable and disengaged youth through motor mechanics—or you're looking for ways to support this brilliant cause—this is the episode for you.
