[Asthma + Lung UK @asthmalunguk]

Wonderful to meet @AndyBurnhamGM to hand in 50 stories and pictures from #OurManchesterOurAir event, and agree the importance of publicly linking air pollution and long-term health impacts. This is the beginning of collaborative working with communities fighting for #CleanAir. @greatermcr

@cnorthwood @AlanGoodLD do you have any idea about what’s going on?

[Trees Not Cars MCR @TreesNotCars]

We’re getting reports that trees are being cut down from the former central retail park by a team on site RIGHT NOW. Cherry Blossom is latest tragedy. @ManCityCouncil what’s going on?

[Adam, Health Development Coordinator (HMSR HDC) @AdamHealthDev]

Thanks to @asthmalunguk for today's Our Manchester, Our Air event, a chance to chat with inspiring local campaigns & groups

Disappointing that an area full of families is missing out on the opportunity of a 10 acre proper park.

The fight continues for the second half of the site.

[Mums For Lungs @MumsForLungs]

🙏@EllaRobertaFdn's tireless fight has been recognised.

We need that ambitious #CleanAir strategy @SteveReedMP. It's not so easy to see dirty air, but we're all breathing it.

💪😘We are proud of Maksim!

[Asthma + Lung UK @asthmalunguk]

Maksim, now 14, has become one of our most dedicated campaigners for clean air and recently featured at our This is Life + Breath photography exhibition in the House of Commons.

Hear from Maksim, one of our clean air heroes: https://t.co/lSqmQKC7ag

[Trees Not Cars MCR @TreesNotCars]

Our Maksim👏👏👏👇He dedicated so much to making Manchester's air cleaner! Look at him- 10 year old when we fought against the car park on GAS, and now 15- still making the difference 💪 for cleaner greener 🌳🌳🌳 Manchester!

[Asthma + Lung UK @asthmalunguk]

“I’m the first person in my family to have asthma and I grew up in the city centre, so I think that toxic air could be one of the causes.”

[Asthma + Lung UK @asthmalunguk]

Thank you so much to all of our amazing runners at the 2024 Royal Parks Half Marathon yesterday! 👏 Registration for next year’s event is open now! https://t.co/YspO7Yg8I1

[Asthma + Lung UK @asthmalunguk]

The government apology marks an important moment in our fight to tackle the dangerous health impacts of air pollution on our nation’s children who are most vulnerable. While we welcome this statement from Ministers – now is the time for action, not words. https://t.co/qdXzOnNWQa

[Asthma + Lung UK @asthmalunguk]

Local leaders must show that they take this public health crisis seriously.

We need to see a plan that urgently brings levels of air pollution in line with World Health Organization guidelines, not just legal limits, to protect the health of local people.

[Asthma + Lung UK @asthmalunguk]

Greater Manchester suffers from some of the worst air pollution levels in the UK, leading to high asthma rates and up to 1,200 early deaths each year.
