At last week's #GreaterManchester Mayoral transport hustings we were really pleased to hear support for #SchoolStreets from Cllr Jake Austin 🔶, Michael Welton & Andy Burnham. Andy's pledge to create 100 permanent School Streets by 2028 (with camera enforcement) is a very welcome

Our Year 5 children met Mayor Andy Burnham and MP Afzal Khan to ask them about reducing cars outside schools to lower air pollution and create safer communities for walking and cycling to school. Andy Burnham Mayor of Greater Manchester Afzal Khan MP Let's Talk Clean Air in Whalley Range

As an Asthma-friendly school, we are raising awareness of the dangers of air pollution on developing children's lungs and working with other organisations across Manchester campaigning for cleaner air. #CleanAir Mayor of Greater Manchester Afzal Khan MP Let's Talk Clean Air in Whalley Range Walk Ride GM

We met with Andy Burnham and Afzal Khan MP to discuss what the mayor will do about cleaning up the air if he's reelected. Students from St Margaret's Primary School (Whalley Range) asked hard hitting questions about getting cars off the road around their school to help reduce the high levels of asthma

Taxi tour driver, John Consterdine, travels all around GM.

He drives an electric vehicle but is very aware of the air pollution in different areas.

His grandchildren walk to school, but he worries that pollution on the roads they walk along will be harming their health.

Anyway, let's remember who we do this for ☺️

We are at the GM Mayoral Hustings on transport to see what are mayoral candidates are planning to do clean up the air in Greater Manchester

Since becoming a dad, Dan is increasingly aware that his son is breathing in pollution and even avoids certain roads. It shouldn’t be like this. We deserve better. Email the mayoral candidates to take action cleancitiescampaign.org/gm #GMDirtySecret

Making plans for Clean Air Day on 24th June at our Clean Air Organisations Hub meeting

Andy Burnham seems like a nice guy though, so I think we can let this one slide.

Our #Manchester #LocalElections2024 asks:
1. A pathway to World Health Organization (WHO) #AirPollution guidelines
2. A #CleanAir cabinet member
3. Action on #WoodBurning
4. #SchoolStreets at 25% of schools by 2029

Every new school in England is being built in an area with unsafe levels of air pollution

Doing the least in the longest possible time to meet UK air pollution targets that are 3 times the recommended World Health Organization (WHO) levels anyway is not going to make our children healthier Andy Burnham

The clock is ticking for clean air in Manchester Andy Burnham
