Childhood Heroes the podcast is all about the big issues affecting modern childhood.
In each episode, we speak to a new subject expert and ask the question, is childhood better or worse today than a generation ago?
What was your childhood like?
Many adults today will tell you that it was a time of freedom, with less stress, less complexity. And, for all the struggles or hardships, they are glad that they grew up then and not now, with all the social media craziness, selfie culture and mental health issues.
But was it really all that great then? And is it really all that bad now?!
Having worked in the children and young people’s sector for the last 15 years, I know many amazing organisations and brilliant people working to improve the lives of children and young people. And, despite some undeniable challenges, I also see amazing progress in some areas - we just don’t often get to hear about it.
With this podcast, I aim to share with you a fresh perspective on modern childhood. Each episode features a conversation with an inspiring subject expert and, topic by topic, we explore the challenges and celebrate progress. I hope that it will leave you feeling better informed about the facts, and more hopeful for the future.
