If only we werenโt so siloed in our budgeting.
The gains for public health budgets from enabling a physically active population are immense.
Safe routes for cycling are an investment in health more than a cost for transport budgets. ๐

Today, 6th February is the anniversary of the 1958 #Munich Air Disaster.
This mini zine was created by Worker's artist Gayle Rogers whose ancestor Duncan Edwards died from the injuries he sustained in the plane crash. He was 21 years old.
Thinking of all those affected by the loss of loved ones.
Hope you enjoy it - and if you do please give him a like and subscribe as it helps get his fabulous work seen by more people!
He does some incredible work!

Chris #sculptor posted a video in his Masterwoodchip YouTube Channel. These videos take months to plan & edit to a good standard.
This is around 10mins & takes you through an early stage of his #Llantrisant #Church commission to create a cross from antique reclaimed oak.

The Dawlish - Teignmouth railway line feels like the absolute front line of climate adaptation in Britain (a test we are not passing so far).
And yet somehow, somehow, this article manages to go in-depth on the problems with the line without mentioning the climate once. The sea is literally higher!
The evidence from the 2 years since Wales set a 20mph default for urban/village roads is clear:-
1,270 fewer casualties
134 fewer of them being fatal or serious
ยฃ45 pa lower insurance premiums than without 20
These are big wins for communities, NHS, emergency services and economy.

This is another reason measures to reduce traffic are so urgently needed.
Everything helps - pedestrian crossings, bike lanes, 20mph limits, clean air zones, congestion zones, investment in new public transport options, parking control, liveable neighbourhoods and car clubs.
Letโs do it all.
