Charlee Bewsher
Youth Work Unit, Yorkshire and Humber
I am a youth worker with the Youth Work Unit Yorkshire and Humber, supporting regional youth voice opportunities for the half a million young people in Yorkshire and Humber. I have been supporting young people for four year to address transport inequalities in the region, as a means to encourage their use. This has meant working with Transport for the North, transport providers, commissioners and young people, to identify barriers to use and address these. More recently the young people have explore how public transport can be more environmentally friendly, and the challenges this faces in rural communities. Additionally, I work in partnership with the Northern Youth Work Unit, to address issues that cross these geographical areas
Morgan Campbell
University of Leeds, Institute for Transport Studies
I am a transdisciplinary researcher and lecturer working on issues related to equitable transport mobility and pathways to sustainable urban futures. My research focuses on uncovering fissures between the representation of urban transformation in the realm of policy discourse, politics, and planning documentation and how urban transformation is enacted and experienced; who or what benefits from it. Additionally, I look at public transport as a form of public space in motion, agency and negotiation in the context of everyday mobility of underrepresented populations.

Transport Planner and PhD student, University of Leeds / Birmingham City Council

I hold an MSc in Sustainable Transport for the same department, and an MEng in Rural and Surveying Engineering from the Aristotle University of Thessaloniki. I have previously worked as a transport planning consultant and at Highways England.

I have experience in different forms of public engagement and consultation, and I understand the challenges of reaching and including diverse community groups in these processes.
