Thank you Izzy. I’m so glad you could come.

The anger and despair coming from the audience was palpable. I wanted to show how frequently we witness red light jumping, mobile phone use and speeding in Birmingham; the impact on communities who feel less safe moving around their neighbourhoods; and the impact on grieving families and friends.

Thank you Rob and I’m sorry to hear about your personal experience.

Thank you so much Sally!
