Wonderful to meet @AndyBurnhamGM to hand in 50 stories and pictures from #OurManchesterOurAir event, and agree the importance of publicly linking air pollution and long-term health impacts. This is the beginning of collaborative working with communities fighting for #CleanAir. @greatermcr

We’re getting reports that trees are being cut down from the former central retail park by a team on site RIGHT NOW. Cherry Blossom is latest tragedy. @ManCityCouncil what’s going on?

🙏@EllaRobertaFdn's tireless fight has been recognised. We need that ambitious #CleanAir strategy @SteveReedMP. It's not so easy to see dirty air, but we're all breathing it. "I’m going to say it again and again. Ella isn’t the only one". bbc.co.uk/news/articles/c5yx…

“I’m the first person in my family to have asthma and I grew up in the city centre, so I think that toxic air could be one of the causes.”

The government apology marks an important moment in our fight to tackle the dangerous health impacts of air pollution on our nation’s children who are most vulnerable. While we welcome this statement from Ministers – now is the time for action, not words. bbc.co.uk/news/articles/c5yx…

Local leaders must show that they take this public health crisis seriously. We need to see a plan that urgently brings levels of air pollution in line with World Health Organization guidelines, not just legal limits, to protect the health of local people.
