Three stories of young people who have decided that they want to engage with life in their communities. In driving forward their schemes, the young people come into contact with community action, politics, policing, democracy and finance.

Programme 1 - Kyle's Story
Sixteen-year-old Kyle Linturn's campaign to get a skate park built in the isolated rural community where he lives. Kyle has almost single-handedly raised the £74,000 needed to bring the project to life and in the process has had to combat apathy and even opposition from local authorities and decision-makers.
