⚠ Last month the Government slashed investment in active travel by over £200 million ⚠ These cuts are a huge backward step for our climate, economy, and health, and simply don’t make sense. It’s time to speak up 👇

Active travel isn't just a 'nice to have'. Walking and cycling is worth an estimated £36.5 billion to the UK economy annually and is how millions of people get to work, go to the shops and travel around healthily, cheaply, and emissions-free.

Today the Bikeability Trust is at Parliament for the @allpartycycling #ActiveTravel Showcase. Now is more important than ever to show government why #ActiveTravel funding is essential. Proud to exhibit the brilliance of Bikeability for all children, families and communities.
