Celebrating May Day at the Shipley Triangle!
So lovely to see a real life Maypole - let's bring back the tradition and here's to many more and across Shipley too!
Hope you've all enjoyed your long weekend 😊
While May Day has pagan roots, it's also a workers' holiday of course ...

It's Beep Beep Day a road safety campaign by Brake to increase young children's awareness of road dangers and how to keep themselves safe.
🚨 But I think we need a shift from putting the responsibility onto young people and pedestrians and start making our streets safer.

🛍 Pedestrianised or more walkable streets lead to more money spent in local shops.
