Autumn’s here, which makes it prime reflection season. Did my summer plans work out? Did I master the chaos of school holidays? (Absolutely not). Instead of reflecting on that, I’ve pulled together active travel research. Best bit? It’s all open access. https://t.co/3p8QxVZY8M

🚴‍♂��� At @WeAreCyclingUK, we've launched our 5-year strategy! One goal: improve perceptions of cycling. I'm researching attitudes & media influences. Any #Research, #Articles, #Podcasts, or #People you recommend? Collaboration ideas welcome!

🚳 Let’s Not Skip the Investment in Active Travel with the next Government! Our @WeAreCyclingUK manifesto is advocating for long-term investment in walking and wheeling.

We call for at least 10% of the total transport budget to be dedicated to active travel within 5 years.

[Cycling UK @WeAreCyclingUK]

We're calling for cycling and walking to be prioritised in the next government’s plan

And to you @LouHaigh! I think I recognise that pic from our recent e-bike ride in Sheffield 👀

@WeAreCyclingUK is calling on the next govt to invest 10% of @transportgovuk budget on walking & cycling by the end of the next Parliament so that everyone who wants to cycle can!

[Cycling UK @WeAreCyclingUK]

Great news that @Sport_England is targeting funding to areas with most barriers to being active and greatest health inequalities.

Cycling UK supports communities that need it most thru grassroots clubs & programmes: cycling can be an easy & accessible way to live healthily.
