Make a Difference - Helmets and Headbands

Becca Bryers guides you through surprising stories of communities across England pulling together to help others, drawn from across BBC Local Radio.

This episode features 16-year-old skateboarder Sid, who spent four weeks in hospital recovering from a near fatal head trauma. He and his family are grateful for the NHS treatment and the support of the skating community - and Sid is eager to share his story to warn others of the risks of not wearing a helmet.
