πŸ“’ Dynamite in Schools! πŸ“’

Yesterday, Dynamite visited local schools to introduce co-production and share some of our recent and ongoing projects.

πŸšŒπŸ’™ Dynamite Meets with Transport Leaders to Improve Bus Accessibility πŸ’™πŸšŒ

At our June Dynamite meeting, we welcomed representatives from Portsmouth City Council, First Bus and Stagecoach to discuss how public transport can become more accessible for young people with SEND and disabilities.

Our Chair, Abbie, led the discussion and shared Dynamite's proposal to explore anti-slip materials in wheelchair spaces to improve safety on buses. Members also discussed bus shelters, accessibility information, mobility scooter permits, driver awareness, and ways to make travel more inclusive.

We were pleased to hear about upcoming improvements across Portsmouth, including new accessible bus shelters, updated information screens, enhanced audio and visual travel information, and new Travel Officers who will support passengers across the city.

The meeting also sparked exciting ideas for future projects, including travel training, Easy Read travel guides, disability awareness resources, and a visit to the Hilsea Bus Depot.

A huge thank you to our guests for taking the time to listen to our members and work with us to create more accessible transport for everyone. πŸ™Œ

πŸŠβ€β™€οΈβ­ Dynamite Young Inspection – BHLive Charter Community Sports Centre β­πŸ€

A huge thank you to BH Live Charter Community Sports Centre for welcoming our Young Inspectors, Abbie, Lucy and Steven, for a recent inspection.

The team were impressed by the friendly and welcoming staff, calm atmosphere, accessible website, and the range of activities available, including the pool, sports hall, gym, and outdoor spaces. The quieter environment made the centre feel particularly SEND-friendly and a great place for young people to feel comfortable and confident.

Our inspectors also shared some ideas for improvements, including easier-to-find accessibility information on the website, automatic doors, and exploring SEND-specific fitness and wellbeing sessions in the future.

Thank you to Carla and Tasha for making us feel so welcome. We look forward to working together again soon! πŸ’™
