All secondary school children in UK should be safe cycling to school every day. Reaping benefits of physical activity and independence. But they're not. And until they are, we'll continue to campaign. The next #kidicalmassmanchester is on Sunday 17th September. Join us!

Holy moly Manchester City Council, invest in one of these and instead of just resurfacing and re-painting cycle lanes, e.g. Wilbraham Road, you could have a new protected cycle lane in a day! No more risking getting door-ed on the chicken shop run.

We will see a lot of this. We do spend a lot on the NHS as a % of GDP compared to developed world, but when you look at the spend per capita, the picture changes and we spend a lot LESS than comparative nations. So the real question is, why is our GDP per capita so poor?

Look out for signs at Stanage & Burbage indicating the presence nearby of Ring Ouzel nests & heed the directions to avoid those areas. Climbers & walkers have earned a good reputation for being willing to share our gritstone uplands with these special birds. 📸 Kim Leyland

Walking around Manchester is a constant reminder that pedestrians are not high enough on the priority list. The state of the pavements and road crossings are not good enough! A recent trip to Italy showed me we can do better!

Incredible to see the improvement the path has made to Brown Tongue. It’s great that British Mountaineering Council continue to support these efforts via #MendOurMountains and the ACT.
