@ScootFit Thankyou!

A thought provoking piece of research by @ActiveCitiesUoS with implications going much wider into liveability more than just transport. Putting wheeled access first in planning is a key to making shorter trips easier to commute and enjoy by all🦽🛵🚲 🛴 🛹 Well done to all.

For anyone that missed it ... we've launched our latest research on #mobility and #sociability - a collaborative piece of research with @BeeNetwork and residents of #Leigh in Greater Manchester

Through this research we have explored a link between mobility and sociability. We hope this informs future work in the active travel space and enables older and disabled people to access their communities using active travel. salford-repository.worktribe.com/output/2077007

In making social infrastructure accessible by sustainable modes, we provide older and disabled people with the opportunities to remain physically active and to spend time in their community, while reducing car dependency.

We’re launching our report entitled “Getting around Leigh: Social research with older and Disabled people” where we considered the mobility and sociability needs of residents in Leigh, a town in Greater Manchester. This is a collaborative piece of research with @BeeNetwork
