Costs to keep a small non-profit business going have gone up dramatically in the last year. As well and higher fees, we now have to buy commercial software to tell HMRC we do not owe them any money. Please help if you can.

Revamped website for @transportfornewhomes.org.uk - lots of research showing the gap between the good words in planning policy on sustainable transport and then what actually built on the ground: www.transportfornewhomes.org.uk

Website had a refresh. Everything is still there, but should be easier to find. www.transportfornewhomes.org.uk

NEW: 50+ transport and health groups have written to the Government calling for clear targets in the upcoming Cycling & Walking Investment Strategy 3, as well as a comprehensive plan for a national active travel network, matching the long-term strategic focus given to roads.

We agree! Good to see the NPPF taking transport into account, but don't forget the rest of what makes places work for everyone.

Our appeal had its most successful day yet this week. Thank you to all who have contributed. You can still make donations to support our work here: actionnetwork.org/fundraising/...

12 sites recommended for new towns in England, with three (Tempsford, Crews Hill and Leeds Southbank) likely to be taken forward in the coming years. www.housingtoday.co.uk/news/three-n...

Article highlights how important the work of @transportfornewhomes.org.uk & @planningtransport.co.uk is. It’s not ok for large new developments to be built without access to the basics these new communities need, including a corner shop, playground & community centre.

I'm quoted here for @transportfornewhomes.org.uk with nice things to say about the government new towns plan. But they've got to come through with building at a scale to support basic things like bus routes and a high street. www.theguardian.com/society/2025...

Transport for New Homes needs to raise about £4,000 to get on a sustainable footing for the year ahead. It is a constant struggle to keep organisations like this from going under.

We are back at "high expectations". @transportfornewhomes.org.uk www.transportfornewhomes.org.uk/rail-is-miss...

Our @planningtransport.co.uk spoke to @theguardian.com about how car dependent housing is causing loneliness. www.theguardian.com/uk-news/2025...

With a comment from me. @transportfornewhomes.org.uk

We believe new housing should be built so that residents can walk, cycle and use public transport to go about their daily lives. Sign up to our newsletter to find out what we are doing to help make this a reality. buff.ly/EJ41rry

Our new research in the @bigissue.com in an article by @lgeraghty23.bsky.social ...

Housing targets are surging under Labour's plan to build 1.5 million homes but public transport is not keeping up, new analysis has found.

We took the Government's new housing targets for local authority areas and mapped them against public transport staisfaction levels. Read our latest blog, to find out what we discovered: www.transportfornewhomes.org.uk/high-housing...
