** Get ready for Better Transport Week!
------------------------------------------------------------
Hello Supporter
Next week is Better Transport Week! Time to celebrate the transport that connects communities and brings people together.
Better transport does amazing things. It creates a thriving economy and revitalises local areas; it's good for our health and wellbeing, and helps tackle climate change and air pollution.
This year, Better Transport Week takes place from Monday 16 to Sunday 22 June. Funded by the UK Government, the week is being supported by more than 100 organisations.
With fun events, powerful actions, competitions and special offers, it's time to get ready with these five steps...
** 1. Pledge to use sustainable transport
------------------------------------------------------------
Let's show how vital and precious sustainable transport is! Sign a pledge ([link removed]) to use public transport, car-share, walk, wheel or cycle at least once during Better Transport Week.
