Super-grateful to Govia Thames Railway for supporting the expansion of Awair into Peckham Rye railway station - home to 6 million passengers per year! This really could be the most checked air quality display in London! 👀� www.mynewsdesk.com/uk/govia-tha...

What started out as a connection of wires and circuit boards has grown, over the years, into a beautiful and amazing connection of people, places and voices. I'm so happy to see Awair still growing and blossoming in these wonderful communities 🩵💛

US + Europe made similar reductions in air pollution But deaths attributable to air pollution fell nearly twice as much in Europe than in America Why? The study found Europe addressed unequal access to healthcare + other social factors more effectively We need a cleaner world + a fairer society

Ella’s Law has been published 👏 No child should have the growth of their lungs stunted because of dirty air where they live and play, yet this is the reality of air pollution in England. Ella’s Law would change this. My thanks to Rosamund and all the hard-working campaigners demanding change.
Image shows Sian Berry stood to the left of campaigner Rosamund Adoo-Kissi-Debrah, and surrounded by a group of clean air campaigners. All of them are smiling and holding a copy of Ella's Law - the Clean Air (Human Rights Bill).Image shows Rosamund Adoo-Kiss-Debrah sat next to Sian with a copy of Ella's Law on the table in front of them. They are both reading the Bill that is named in memory of Rosamund's daughter Ella who died aged nine due to exposure to air pollution.
