Pleased to read about positive intent from the Government on walking and cycling. This funding must include commitment towards behaviour change, alongside infrastructure improvement. Looking forward to engaging with @transportgovuk. @Intelligent_Hlt.

Prevention, community-led health & tackling inequalities through social determinants are very much forefront of the @UKLabour manifesto. If elected, Labour must ensure it works with key community trusted voices already working in these places to achieve real, considered change.

Slightly late to the announcement from @SteveReedMP, but great intention from @UKLabour with the Countryside Protection Plan, containing much of what we've been calling for at a policymaking level. Including in our #RoutesToRoots low/no cost manifesto.

Huge disappointment that @CommonsLUHC will not be publishing its report for the 'Children, young people & the built environment' Inquiry. Plenty of effort has gone in x-sector to help improve childhood access to play & nature. The health of future generations depends on it.
There will be no @CommonsLUHC report into children and the built environment. Sad news for everyone who put time, effort and energy into speaking up for #childfriendly places. Guess I’ll put my meet-the-MPs persona away for now. Let’s hope some were paying attention.
