It's #WorldCarFreeDay! 71% of disabled people want to use more sustainable modes of travel, but needless barriers like overcrowding, missing announcements and a lack of lifts make it harder. It's time public transport was accessible, so we can all make choices about how we travel
71% of disabled people want to use more sustainable modes of transport but face barriers to this. The numbers 71% are written in thick black tape on a bright yellow banner, with yellow arrows pointing to the figures

We had a trip out to Watbike @ Kirkley cafe today. What an amazing place. They very kindly donated bikes and scooters to school. If you have any unwanted bikes or scooters that your children have grown out of, take them to Watbike. @WATBike @BC_NorthEast @NewcastleCC
