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.

"Thoughts & prayers" for people killed by cars/drivers is becoming Bradford's version of America's response to guns.
No thoughts offered about what we can actually do to stop dangerous and impatient drivers, speeding, shit parking and massive cars taking over our streets

Beautiful light from Northcliffe Park but I didn't make it to the top today - even the paths in the woods are treacherous!
The conspiracy theory of 15-minute cities - that you won't be able to leave your zone - has come true in the snow, but restricted to 5 minutes terrifying stroll at best 😢

Favourite corner of Shipley looking gorgeous earlier 🌞
Paths were treacherous
Roads have been gritted but we can't get the car out so had to take our chances with walking as usual🤷🏼‍♀️
We need a team of pavement gritters! And prioritise pedestrians!
