This week at People First Keighley and Craven...

4th – 8th November 2024

✪ This week, the members of the People First Podcast team have been doing lots of recording for an episode all about Outside the Box, a community café based in Ilkley which many of our members attend! On Monday they interviewed staff member Amy alongside Adrian, who spoke about his experiences at Outside the Box! Later in the week on Wednesday and Friday, they spoke to Jane W, Stephen H and Benjamin to hear everyone’s experiences of Outside the Box. 

 

This episode was a lot of fun to make for all the time, so make sure to follow The People First Podcast on Facebook and Twitter to keep up to date with when we post new shows!

Image shows 5 people sitting around a black table with microphones and podcast recording equipment on it. Most of them have learning disabilities. They are all looking at the camera and smiling.

✪ The first episode of our new podcast show, the PFKC Podcast Corner, was also released! The interview featured the actor Clive Mantle, who spoke to us about his acting career and his many different roles, as well as lots of other topics. You can find the show on all good podcast platforms, or you can find it on our Podcast Page!

 

We will also be releasing a video version soon with Makaton interpretations done by our member Martin – so keep an eye out for that!

✪ In the afternoon, our members talked with Catrina about what makes a good self-advocate, and how people can become one! We are planning to make this subject the topic of our next video… so keep an eye on our social media pages for that!

✪ Tuesday saw Adrian, Lindsey, Caitlin and Daniel going with our team leader Janet to Cliffe Castle for one of their Wellbeing Walks, which involved a mindfulness photography session!

Image shows 4 people in a wood taking photos of different things with their phones. Two of them have learning disabilities and one is in a wheelchair.

✪ Our Wednesday group continued the session about how to be a good self advocate and started to record the video for it! 

✪ The new episode of the People First Podcast featuring the Antony from the People Powered Press was released! This was an interview all our team was very excited for, so this is definitely a show we recommend watching!

✪ And to round off our week, on Thursday we continued recording about being a self advocate before doing a session of crafting in the afternoon!
