So, I can transport 100kg of topsoil, decking boards & as much other merchandise as someone with a small car yet @BandQ still don’t provide cycle racks. #activetravel #cycling

@Hermesparcels your tracker says my parcel has been delivered but it has not. Your website only gives a phone number that is “an incorrect number” how do I get hold of you or find my parcel?

Incensed by @BBCNews this morning. The SNP, Lib Dems, Greens and DUP are all led by women yet the #BBC choose to show 4 middle aged white men to represent British politics - 2 have ZERO seats in Parliament! Where is #diversity #women and fair representation?

This fantastic image explains the physiological impact of physical activity on the brain. No wonder physical activity is associated with improved attention & learning in children and reduced risk of dementia in adults. #everybodyactiveeveryday #startactivestayactive

The #NHS bowel cancer screening programme is excellent & we are lucky to have it ... but clinicians, when you give advice, remember the government recommendations on fibre intake & give proper dietary advice, don’t just recommend fybogel! @JamieWaterall we need to push this more!

[Tim Chapman @WitneyTim]

Absolutely bang on! we know #physicalactivity works. But we still don’t know how to change people’s behaviour at scale - some fantastic initiatives eg @parkrunUK #Active10 #thisgirlcan but v little change in total nos active over same period - let’s focus on shifting the curve https://t.co/VaLwAcRhdP

[Esther van Sluijs @EvanSluijs]

Time for a change? "Estimates of post-intervention effects and long-term behaviour change have not changed substantially since 2007 and 2011, respectively, and additional trials are increasingly unlikely to change these stabilized findings." https://t.co/DuFuHAnwr5
