Two new projects aimed at breaking down barriers:
Older people project in South Yorkshire: improving walking environment and increasing walking so that we tackle isolation and support independence for as long as possible
Primary to secondary transition in Manchester: using the transition between schools to maintain and increase walking levels and instil active lifestyles in young people

Big success: now have over 30,000 supporters- a 1500% increase over 2 years!
We now have 18 Living Streets Groups and 24 Affiliated Groups – all taking action to create better streets in their area.
This is a vital part of our overall strategy: - Volume of support = credibility- Reach = more people taking action

In conclusion…Seen some great success, but we’re looking to the future
There is a lot more to be done, and we need to focus relentlessly on making noise for pedestrians and demanding pedestrian priority
Very ambitious strategy, because… we must see more progress, more success and a better deal for pedestrians
Thank you! We couldn’t achieve as much as we have without our committed supporters

In conclusion…
Happy to take questions later, and please do talk to me during the day
But also, please do talk to each other- there is so much experience, knowledge and inspiration in the room
And finally- to demonstrate our influence- a special message from someone who has been very supportive...
