End pavement parking in England
22 November 2023 marked the third anniversary of the close of the DfT’s pavement parking consultation – that's 1,095 days of waiting for a response and action on a vital issue.
Over 6,300 of you signed our 'anniversary card' calling for action, which we delivered to 10 Downing Street.
WOW is here for 23/24!
Want to be part of the pupil-led scheme that is helping thousands of schools tackle road safety issues, pollution, congestion and childhood inactivity?
WOW - the walk to school challenge is available with brand new resources for primary schools for the 2023/24 year with theme 'THE BRITISH NATURE WALK'.
#BetterCrossings!
30 seconds.
That's the most pedestrians should need to wait for a green crossing signal.
Are you fed up of waiting too long to cross the road? Join our new campaign today.
A generation ago, 70% of us walked to school – now it’s less than half.
We want to reverse this decline. We want children to be energised and empowered, and to make walking to school their natural choice.
And we know just how to do it.
