Village

Local communities coming together to buy, sell & share - a sustainable way to build a happier, stronger, greener world 👭♻️💚

New study finds that living in walkable neighborhoods correlates with a 15-20% reduction in obesity and diabetes.

Notably, the researchers examined thousands of siblings, which isolates family effects.

Of course please don't hesitate to get in touch if you have any questions or if there is anything we can help with?

Wishing you all the best 💚

We're sad to share that Village's last day will be 22nd December 2023.

It's been amazing how everyone came together over the years to support their local community, with a shared mission of trying to help create a sustainable way to build a happier, stronger, greener world...

@treesforstreets helps individuals, groups of neighbours, and local biz to take action to green their streets🌳🌳🌳

Meet Joseph, he's sponsored a new street tree. He felt this was very tangible way to make a difference, something he can see daily.

Opportunities to ecologically transform cities and make them more people friendly exist everywhere we look 💚

Paris is investing £225m to transform the iconic but car-choked Champs-Élysées boulevard into an “extraordinary garden.” Among other things, 140K on-street parking spaces will be removed. Bold city-building leadership from @Anne_Hidalgo & team. Via @TheB1M

"Putting pedestrians first at crossings will make streets safer for everyone. This exciting initiative to switch to a default green person gives power back to pedestrians helping them move around more easily, safely and quickly" @MaryCreagh_ @livingstreets

This #EarthDay we’re celebrating our one shared home. 🌍

We’ve seen what’s possible when we allow nature to recover - from forests regrowing to wildlife returning to precious habitats.

Together, we can #FighrForYourWorld. Are you with us?

"31% of Londoners chose to walk instead of using a different mode of transport last year.

...57% of people say they now go on more walks for exercise or walk for longer than they did before the pandemic."

Interesting data from Copenhagen: Driving a car one kilometre costs society 89 cents – but cycling the same distance benefits society by 26 cents. https://t.co/lZMszLVE2Q
