P6 - My Story for the Newscast & Production Timetable

My initial idea was to do events which consisted of the Winterville event which took place in Victoria Park. However I wanted to push myself further and do a story that isn't really done as well as raise awareness about the difficulties young people with disabilities face. Therefore I have changed my story to find out that to what extent do health care facilities make it accessible for young people to use their equipment. Not only can this relate to young people who want to use the gym but it can also help those with a disability to find new things to do in their spare time and show the community that they are just as capable of doing what we can do.
