HUGE news, gang! The City of Edinburgh council have agreed to allocate £50,000 of this year's budget to fixing our top 5 worst kerbs in Porty. To celebrate we will be holding a pot luck picnic on the 11th of June in Brighton Park between 12 and 2. Please save the date @portyenergy.bsky.social

At that rate we calculate it will take 230 years to get through the backlog of 17,000 reported drop kerbs on the system. That is not good enough! @portyenergy.bsky.social

🚨 Fun event alert! 🚨 Do you love ceilidhs but hate dancing? This @portyenergy.bsky.social ceilidh is for you. Saturday 22nd Feb at 7pm in Porty town hall. - local food and bar - music from @hudyerwheesht.bsky.social - waulking songs with Rena Gertz www.tickettailor.com/events/ceili...

(2/2) Top 5 places to start improving Porty's accessibility for all #activetravel @portyenergy.bsky.social

(1/2) Top 5 places to start improving Porty's pavements for everyone! EFP’s drop kerb survey of Porty high street and Prom threw up some pretty stark statistics. Greater than half of our drop kerbs in high traffic areas need improvement to bring them up to a safe and useable standard.

It’s time for a catchup! The next Equal Footing Porty meeting will be 13.30 -15.00 on Monday 3rd of February @‌Bellfield (in the celebration foyer, which can be accessed via the big church hall). Please come along for a cuppa, a snack and some wholesome chat about accessibility!

What about places where there SHOULD be a drop curb to allow you to keep using the pavement, and there just isn't? Meet the Blue category. We identified 33 such places around Porty that need new drop curbs installed. #kerbyourenthusiasm #curbyourenthusiasm
