We're huge fans of Skelf! And always surprised by how many people haven't gone along for a shot - it's only a 30 min, almost traffic-free cycle from Leith Links 🚲

Stolen from Architektoniczk on LinkedIn but just 👀 at these graphs. The movement patterns of boys and girls in a Spanish school playground. Boys take up the centre, girls are literally marginalised. And what they learn in school they take into public space. What a surprise.

Of all the reasons we want to see an activity park in Leith Links – this one might be at the top: 7 schools within 1km. 18 schools within 2km. 0 skateparks*. *Or roller rinks, pump tracks, bouldering rocks, ping pong tables or street workout gyms.
