Spokes Cargobike support grants for organisations Thanks to generous donations from our members we are pleased to offer grants to local community organisations (and very small businesses) based in Edinburgh/Lothian to assist with the cost of buying a cargo bike. We also received support for this initiative from the Galashan Trust for a limited period of time, which enabled us to increase grant levels – support from other sources would be welcome!

I've just come from a parents meeting at Boroughmuir. They have a very sensible mobile policy there and every parent seemed fine with it. As do the children.

1. I hope I don't catch you using your IT inappropriately during meetings/HoC sessions.
2. Whatever happened to "don't don't do it to us, do it with us".
3. I thought it was the Tories who didn't want a nanny state.

Polwarth junction redesigned! There are two proposed options for the eastern end of the Polwarth junction.

We believe option 1 is better for pedestrian safety.
