#AndSheCycles is a campaign aimed at encouraging teenage girls to cycle more by tackling the barriers they face.
Sustrans are about to launch the campaign in Scotland, aided by a team of inspiring young women from schools, colleges and youth groups all over the country. In Ayrshire, we worked with Girvan Academy, The Ayr Ark and Ayrshire College. In this episode we're joined by some of these young women and by some of the Sustrans staff who have helped to guide the research and shape what the campaign will look like.
Thanks you to guests Alice, Indi, Anna Faith and Katie for having a great conversation with us!
