In this piece we highlight the gendered differences that women experience in accessing parks and foreground a new study exploring intersectional barriers faced by underserved communities. A huge thank you to my wonderful co-authors @jenniegray.bsky.social @vikkimaps.bsky.social

"Simply having a park nearby is not enough – they must be welcoming and safe for all." In this article for @uk.theconversation.com, @annabarker.bsky.social, @jenniegray.bsky.social and @vikkimaps.bsky.social explain why these spaces can feel unsafe for women. 🏞️ theconversation.com/women-are-th...

Allowing cycles on the tram off-peak is a positive move for Greater Manchester. Article discusses rearranging carriages. I really hope this means that cycles will have their own space, and not use spaces designated for wheelchair users, like in the trials. www.bbc.co.uk/news/article...

I really enjoyed getting out into Bradford and speaking to residents about what makes them feel welcome in parks, and what makes it more challenging. A great way to connect and feed into the upcoming survey for our @greenaware.bsky.social project!

Great that our co-produced guidance on 'Safer Parks: Improving Access for Women and Girls', part of the @greenflagaward.bsky.social programme, was highlighted at the #UNHabitat #WorldUrbanForum in Cairo Guidance available at: www.greenflagaward.org/resources/sa... #CairoCallToAction #SaferParks
