Youth Rising by NCS

Groups and communities affected by Lockdown

Youth Rising is made by young people from all over England. For our 14th episode, we have strictly adhered to the UK’s Covid-19 lockdown rules, recording remotely to bring you stories from isolation. 
 
Firstly we look at communities, the groups that have continued to grow and new groups that have formed in the lockdown. Our reporter’s Llewelyn, Eva and Samuel held a discussion with Pinewood Judo Club’s Head Coach Mark Fricker and Tom Ottway the founder of ‘From Home’ 

In this week’s isolation diaries we challenged Caitlin to learn Spanish and Samuel to play the guitar. And if you’re stuck for some new games to play The Lockdown Lowdown is all about games and gaming.
