'Walking is magic to me because when we walk we can explore.'
For #WalktoSchoolWeek , we asked pupils in #Wrexham what the #MagicOfWalking and wheeling means to them.

New #WalkToSchoolWeek research finds that 1 in 3 parents find the area outside their child’s school unsafe.
When more of us walk, wheel, cycle, scoot – or park and stride – it's safer and more pleasant to walk to school.
