Our November WOW badge was designed by Arlo, aged 6.

What brings Arlo joy? "Me and my brother jumping in puddles. We always laugh and have so much fun."

Congratulations to Arlo & to everyone receiving their WOW badge for walking and wheeling with us - whatever the weather 🌈

Rain or shine, walking makes you feel good! 🌈 Even a short walk outdoors is proven to reduce feelings of anxiety and boost your mood – no matter the weather.

Aideen’s story has sparked an overwhelming response, showing the real impact that pavement parking has on people’s daily lives across the UK.

This is why we are campaigning to end pavement parking.

“As a mum and a wheelchair user, pavement parking puts me and my children in danger every day. I don’t understand why drivers think they can block pavements — they’re for pedestrians.” - Aideen, campaigner
