This is essential around all our schools. Especially when people are queuing on narrow pavements so are in even more danger than normal. https://www.bristol247.com/news-and-features/news/parents-call-for-safer-streets-around-bristol-schools/

There are some ideas here for walks within Bristol. They were devised by the Ramblers a while ago, so the maps of the routes are not 100% accurate. https://www.outdoorswest.org.uk/Home/maps-and-routes/walks-in-bristol-by-the-ramblers

West of England mayor Tim Bowles told the meeting that congestion cost the region’s economy about £300m a year and that two-thirds of commutes were by car, of which 40 per cent were less than two kilometres.

Monday 04 January

We have a very active "Facebook Buy Nothing" group with over 600 members for people living in Bishopston, St Andrews and Horfield. It works really well. People give things away usually to the first person who says they want it and the group doesn't have complicated rules as described in the Guardian article which refers to Australia. Often items are borrowed or requested as well. https://www.theguardian.com/australia-news/2021/jan/04/inside-the-hyper-local-world-of-facebooks-buy-nothing-groups?CMP=Share_AndroidApp_Other

Dr Nick Hopkinson, medical director at the Asthma UK and British Lung Foundation Partnership, said both indoor and outdoor pollution caused by wood burning stoves caused serious health issues, from breathing problems to an increased risk of heart attacks, strokes and lung cancer. “To protect yourself and others around you, especially children who are particularly vulnerable as their lungs are smaller and still developing, avoid buying a wood-burning stove or using an open fire if you have another source of fuel to cook and heat your home with.” https://www.theguardian.com/environment/2021/jan/01/avoid-using-wood-burning-stoves-if-possible-warn-health-experts?CMP=Share_AndroidApp_Other
