Managed to get out for #volunteerweek and volunteer for @SustransSouth on the Bristol Bath Railway Path and my community in a local nature reserve. Great to speak with so many people who use these spaces. Grateful that my employer allows #volunteer days @nationaltrust

🧵 about the incredible benefits of clip-on handcycling for me as a wheelchair user. Had a medical appt this am in Central London. I'm super privileged to have transport choices. Why did I choose a multi-modal active travel trip? 1. Driving + hassle of parking 1.25hr

When we're told we're a "nation of drivers", so many of us are excluded. We need safe streets, accessible pavements, comprehensive cycle and mobility networks and high quality public transport in order to provide #MobilityJustice and #Equity to all. gov.uk/government/publicatio…

Text reads: Over 35,000 people walking, wheeling and cycling were killed or injured by drivers in Great Britain in 2022. 43% of over-70s don't have a driving licence; 45% of Disabled 17-64 year olds don't have a driving licence; Almost 20% of people in the UK are children who cannot legally drive; 20% of households have no car or van. We all deserve safe streets and real choice about how we travel. Accessible walking, wheeling, cycling and public transport for everyone are essential.

Wonderful to join @katherinedunne & @SustransLondon at Stroud-on-the- Green junior school in @LBofHounslow to celebrate #CarFreeDay2023. This is one of the oldest school streets in London. Brilliant to see kids having fun and to sneak in a delicious ice cream. 🍦🚲🚶‍♀️👨‍👩‍👧‍👦⚽️🌼🌷

Pleased to lend @cities_clean support to @MumsForLungs today at the launch of a new Diesel Pollution Ward for children. It's unacceptable that children in London are forced to breathe dirty air; we need urgent action from all levels of govt to help #DitchDiesel for good! 🚙💨 😷

5 years ago, we launched London's Cycle Action Plan. We now have a 340km network of cycleways and there are 1.2m daily journeys by bike. Today, on #CleanAirDay, we're restating our commitment to make London greener, cleaner and healthier with a new updated cycle plan ...

Every ride starts and finishes with somewhere to park your cycle states Ben @Wheels4Well storage felt more keenly by people using adapted cycles. Second only to infrastructure as a barrier to increasing cycling levels #bashthebarrier #cyclingactionplan
