Today on the podcast we’re joined by Joanne Colleran, a mum from Liverpool who has turned personal experience into powerful action. Joanne is the founder of The Bobby Colleran Trust, a charity set up in her son Bobby’s name to promote road safety and protect children on their journeys to and from school.

What began as a local campaign has grown into a national movement. Through the Slow Down for Bobby campaign and educational programmes in schools, the trust is raising awareness, changing behaviours, and helping to save lives across the UK.

In this episode, Joanne shares the story behind the trust, the vital work they’re doing in communities, and how Bobby’s legacy continues to make a real difference.

A short episode ahead of Friday’s full release, featuring Bobby’s mum reading the speech she prepared for the launch of the Bobby Colleran Trust’s powerful new school resource.

In this deeply honest conversation, Gemma opens up about burnout behind the scenes, the identity shift that came with leaving fame behind and how wellness became more than a buzzword  it became a lifeline.
