I’m a factory worker. We produce food for hotels and conferences. I like my job, but there’s just one problem – my work hours. You see, I work from ten in the evening until six in the morning. So, when you’re at work or in class, I’m in bed! I get up late in the afternoon. I still feel tired, so I just watch TV or I listen to music. I also work on Saturday and Sunday. So my weekend is in the middle of the week. I do my shopping on a Wednesday morning and I go to the cinema on a Thursday afternoon. It’s good because town is quiet then. But my evenings aren’t great. I don’t see my friends much. And there aren’t many parties on a Wednesday evening!

In this week’s programme, we look at the problem of tired teenagers. Many parents have the same problem – their sons and daughters just can’t get up in the morning. So why is this? Are they just lazy? Well, we know from scientific studies that young people have a different internal clock. They are fine late at night, but they don’t feel good early in the morning. They are often tired, so they don’t feel happy. Sometimes they are even angry with their parents and their friends. But a school in the south of England thinks it has the answer. Hampton Court House has a new ‘no-mornings’ timetable for its students aged 16 to 18. So the first class of the day isn’t at nine o’clock. The new school day for older students starts at half past one and finishes at seven o’clock. The head teacher thinks students are more interested in their work when they aren’t tired and stressed. And what about the parents? Most of them think it’s a good idea. And they like driving to school when the traffic isn’t so bad! And now for news on the best ways to destress at work … 5 They are brothers from the USA and they are film directors.

It’s great to see so many people here today. So first let me tell you a little about SportsAble. We’re a sports disability charity, but a charity with a difference. We don’t just have offices – we have our own sports centre. We have two swimming pools, two sports halls and a large sports field outside. This means we can help disabled people do a lot of different activities. And here are just a few examples: swimming, table tennis, golf and archery. And our new sport for this year is wheelchair basketball – it’s very fast and great fun. And it’s a very popular event at the Paralympics. Here at SportsAble, we’re also part of the Paralympics. SportsAble was a training centre for the Games in London in 2012. And some of our athletes are themselves Paralympians. The first year our athletes were in the Paralympics was 1976, just one year after we started in 1975.
