Too many young people die on Kent's roads

Kent Fire and Rescue Service (KFRS) now attends 25% more road crashes than house fires. In the last three years over 500 young people have been killed or seriously injured on Kents roads. As well as being at risk themselves, young drivers pose a significant danger to others.
One in three young male drivers will write off the car in their first year of
driving. The most likely killer of teenage girls is teenage boys driving.
KFRS promotes now Operation Carmageddon, a campaign that aims to wake up youngsters' attention in order to drive more carefully. Ambulance drivers and firemen will be touring all over Kent and will explain to students why they must drive with caution, what are the risks and how to deal with them.

How is life for overseas students at Christ Church Uni?

The video bellow presents the circumstances in which the international students live in Britain generally, and how is the life of three Nepalese youngsters in particular. They crossed the world from the Himalayan country to in Canterbury to make their way in life. The Nepalese students talk about their studies, their life in Canterbury and how they are treated by the locals.

William Harvey Hospital's car park expansion

A TV report made by me and Alex Ward for our TV broadcasting journalism class. What is all about? Basically, the report raises a question: Why the car park expansion of the William Harvey Hospital has been delayed by two years?

This is the William Harvey Hospital from Ashford, UK. There is a tiny car park which causes problems for all the people who come to this hospital. Queuing is the best term to describe a day around the William Harvey Hospital’s car park. NHS Trust, the body which governs the hospital has made a car park extension proposal about two years ago. The Ashford Borough Council agreed it but the Highways Agency blocked it because some of their “plans” are more important than a hospital’s car park which could provide enough spaces for everybody who gets there. We interviewed MP for Ashford Damian Green to have an official opinion about the issue and we also talked to people of Ashford to find out what they think regard to their hospital's car park.
