Our streets are not safe for children because, as a society, we have collectively accepted that driving oversized SUVs, with bonnets so high that a small child becomes invisible, is more important than a childs life

I raised residents’ concerns about the irresponsible use of e-bikes, and the dangers of unregulated modifications people make to them, during a debate on product safety.

Time to spring back on your bike!
But if your two wheels need a check-up, we can help.
Dr Bike will be in Broad Street #rdguk carrying out free maintenance checks and basic repairs next Thursday, 11am-2pm.
No appointment necessary.
