Event Details

In this session we discuss some of the little considered impacts of a car dependent society, and how this can affect rural communities.

In this interactive workshop we’ll be taking a look at how cars impact on community life. We provide examples of how private vehicles impact on social connections, perceptions of safety, health and how children and young people move around their local areas.

There will be plenty of opportunity for discussion around these issues – and for you to think about how some of these issues might impact your own local community, or the communities you work in.

We’ll finish with some of the ways we can help support you to take action in your community.

Please let us know if you have any accessibility requirements and we will do our best to accommodate these before, during and after the session.

The session will be held on Microsoft Teams. A link will be sent to you when you register.
