ATM Deserts, Food Testing and Cheerleaders

BBC Radio 4 - You and Yours, ATM Deserts, Food Testing and Cheerleaders

Pay-to-use ATM machines, food standards tests and why cheerleading is becoming so popular

Why pay-to-use cash machines are more likely in poorer areas. Also why food testing levels are dropping and why cheerleading is becoming so popular.

We look at why pay-to-use ATMs are on the rise in the most deprived areas of England - and ask is this just a poverty premium on the poor.

Why cheerleading is taking off in the UK.

We take a look at a BBC investigation which discovered fewer than half of those who had a full assessment for NHS long-term out of hospital care were granted it.

A father, whose son was killed in a car crash in a "shared space," tells us why he thinks there needs to be better signs to show where a road starts and a pavement ends.

As more and more car makers offer older car scrappage schemes, we ask if they are really worth it....

And why are food testing levels dropping - and should we be concerned?

PRESENTER: MELANIE ABBOTT

PRODUCER: PETE WILSON.
