    UK’s first Zero Emission Zone begins in Oxford
    Feb 28 2022

    Oxford is starting to charge drivers up to £10 a day to use the UK’s first zero emissions zone.

    It's part of an ambitious bid to tackle air pollution.

    The zone will cover a small number of streets in the city centre at first, but there are plans to expand it in future.

    This episode of The Oxfordshire News Podcast brings together local council officials, health and transport experts, businesses and campaign groups to discuss what the ZEZ will look like, how it will work, and why we need it!

  • Men's mental health: Challenging the stigma

    Men's mental health: Challenging the stigma
    Aug 6 2021
    We investigate why some men have a harder time talking about mental illness. We’re challenging the stigma that stops many of them from seeking help when they need it most. Figures show men are three times more likely than women to take their own lives. Only 36% of referrals to NHS talking therapies are for men, even though they're just as likely to suffer. This episode features some of Oxfordshire's men who have 'lived experience' of things like depression and anxiety, plus local mental health charities and experts. Talking about your feelings isn't a sign of weakness! See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.
