Our manifesto asks for England's candidates (outside London)

The Covid-19 pandemic is a wake-up call that has both exposed and widened the vast inequity that exists between people and places.

At the same time the climate crisis has not gone away.

It’s imperative that we take urgent action now to create jobs, meet net-zero commitments and improve health.

Towns, cities and regions will be at the heart of building back better.

Healthier, fairer places and better transport will underpin the UK’s recovery.

We must act now.
  

  
What you can do

Want to ensure that we create healthier, fairer places across England?

Get in touch with your preferred candidate and ask them to commit to putting walking and cycling at the heart of their plans for your area.

You can email them. You can Tweet, Instagram or Facebook them. You can even write them a letter. It all counts.

We contacted the regional mayor election candidates in the North of England and asked them a series of questions about their commitment to active travel.
