Tell your MSP candidates to deliver for walking and wheeling
On 7 May, we’ll elect a new Scottish Government.
Living Streets Scotland and Walking Scotland are calling on the 129 new Members of the Scottish Parliament to embrace ‘The Power of Walking’. Can you help us get the message out loud and clear to candidates? Scotland should be a walking nation!
Walking is one of the best ways to address some of the greatest challenges of our time, including health inequalities, physical inactivity, and the climate-nature emergency. Bold ambitions from the previous Government have fallen short with reduced funding, unmet targets and disappointing delivery.
We need to see walking and wheeling at the heart of Government, with long-term investment, improved infrastructure in our communities and safer conditions for pedestrians across Scotland.
Write to your candidates today using our editable online letter – call on your local candidates to deliver on our four steps to create a walking nation.
