App launched for our younger residents

An app has been launched for the under 25s in Oxfordshire which has activities and events for them to enjoy.

Bungee, Oxfordshire’s app for things to do and see for the under 25s, has been developed by young people at FilmOxford.  The app helps young people find things to do, places to go and where to get help, based on their location and their interests.

Young people have built Bungee with technical support from FilmOxford, information downloads from Oxfordshire Sports Partnership and promotions run by Jack FM.

Bungee will tell the user what’s on, how close, where on the map the event, activity or place is and how to get there by bus. This app will benefit everyone from the sports clubs, nightlife and events holders through to the people, the community and the economy of Oxfordshire.

Content is grouped into categories including:

  • Play = Sports ranging from the usual suspects to the more obscure and everything in between.
  • Visit = Places you might visit or things you might go to like gigs, community events or galleries and museums
  • Advice =  Does what it says on the tin
  • Do = Activities like arts workshops, Scouts and Guides… anything you can do that isn’t sport
  • Keeping Me Safe = Services that offer advice about personal safety i.e. Drug and Alcohol Awareness and Personal Abuse.

You can download the app for free from the Apple App Store and Google play on the Saturday 26 July and hear more about it on Jack2 and find Bungee at facebook.com/BungeeOxfordshire and @BungeeOxford and at 6 locations across Oxfordshire.
