Poorest people emit least air pollution, but live in areas with worse air quality and suffer poorer health generally. Greater vulnerability means the least well-off bear an unfair proportion of health burden from air pollution. #inequality

@Sustrans route 67 Rotherham is open! Amazing work @RMBCPress @JacksonCivils building flood defences between live rail and the canal. Solid concrete wall has been adorned with a colourful mural. 8 miles mostly traffic free or segregated route from #Sheffield to #Rotherham 🚴🎉

The Secret Garden officially opens tomorrow!

Funded by the Charity and designed by Tom Beaumont at @WeddleLandscape, hospital staff can spend their breaks in a peaceful sanctuary.

Here's what Evelyn had to say after completing her first cycle commute with one of our Bike Buddies @AndyDouglasGP "I'd been thinking of cycle commuting for a while but not had the confidence to do it. The Bike Buddy scheme was a great way to find out. Would definitely recommend"

What a great way to start a Friday in #Sheffield today - thank you @Ed_Clancy @chloeshepherd - and I met @CyclingInASkirt in person for the first time! The challenges of active travel and promoting cycling as a way to commute in Sheffield on the agenda @PPushbike

Riding out with South Yorkshire’s NHS @STHActiveTravel Bike Buddy hero’s showcased the champion work they’re doing to help @NHSuk colleagues be cycle confident on their commute to work 🧵🚴‍♀️👩‍⚕️ 1/3

Not every day you're joined on your #cycle commute in #Sheffield by a 3 x gold medal olympic cyclist?! Great to meet you @Ed_Clancy and look forward to more work with ys on #ActiveTravel

[Ed Clancy OBE @Ed_Clancy]

Feel VERY privileged to have been invited to support @STHActiveTravel on tomorrow’s Bike Buddy Ride.

A top scheme that’s breaking down barriers and building confidence to support our @NHSuk staff to cycle to work (where they’ll save even more lives).

@CBS9WM @AndyDouglasGP @movemoresheff @CyclingInASkirt @WeAreCyclingUK @CECruikshanks @JoMaher8 @SheffieldHosp @olivercoppard @PPushbike These are the locations our volunteers were able to offer this month. We’re absolutely interested in expanding to as many postcodes as we can and will support anyone from anywhere in the city if asked.

Thinking of switching to an active commute this May but worried about where to start? Join one of our Bike Buddies on a supported ride to work at STH! @AndyDouglasGP @movemoresheff @CyclingInASkirt @WeAreCyclingUK @CECruikshanks @JoMaher8 @SheffieldHosp @olivercoppard @PPushbike

Fine. I admit it. A bike was not the best mode of transport this morning. But then even a 2yo could have told you that. #nightshiftcommute #surprisesnow @STHActiveTravel

[Andrew Douglas @AndyDouglasGP]

Do you work at @SheffieldHosp , and would like to try cycling to work with some peer support?
I'm supporting the ride in from Dore coop on Tuesday 15th via Hunters bar if people want to join?
