"David, is this a publicity stunt?" They didn't take David Dein seriously when he proposed to set up @ArsenalWFC in the 1990s. They're not laughing any more. #WIFBeInspired @barclaysfooty

It's FSA National Survey time & we want to hear the views of all supporters, especially in the women's game. Lots of new emerging issues. Questions on: - Distribution of cash re: WG - Independence of women's teams - VAR in the WSL - 3pm TV blackout 👉 surveymonkey.co.uk/r/fsa-fan…

Wow, the responses to this. I don't understand why people who love driving aren't more supportive of schemes to get people cycling: more cyclists = less cars on their route = less traffic jams for those that stick to the car. Win win surely?! But, as always, flat out rejection.
Stuck in traffic when you could have cycled?

First paddle of the year today. No falls. Several herons and cormorants. And a great sunset to finish. So peaceful! #getoutside

Exciting day in the office when you get to see your name in print!
Print versions of @EmeraldGlobal Housing, Care and Support Fulfilling Lives themed double issue have landed at @CFE_Ltd HQ! Online is great but nothing beats thumbing through a paper version and seeing the work in print. @SystemChangeTNL #seethefullpicture

Finally, a hashtag I can get behind. Bottom bunk is mine, 8yo nephew on the top. Had a choice of duvet covers. Many cuddly toys kicked out for the night. Luckily Santa still came and wasn't confused by the guest. Should have brought my own stocking. #duvetknowitschristmas

Trip to Doncaster today for @DoncasterMoving event to present for @CFE_Ltd. Train then a free bike loan for the 15 min ride out to Bentley from the Active Travel Hub at the station. No need to book my bike on the train, and a nice (chilly) ride 95% on segregated bike lanes 👍

Went to watch @LCFC_Women today. No comment on the game 🤨 but disappointed in the @LCFC club shop. Great that the women play at the King Power, but what is this about... #girlsonlywearpink

Enjoyed listening to @missbutlerbikes championing sword fighting in school time :-) (I think they call it fencing in PE but anyway...)
🤺 'Fencing isn't just for private schools!' @CHCC_Official have partnered with @britishfencing to give students a new experience. Here's why: bbc.in/3EVJ88d

Fulfilling Lives, an 8-year @TNLComFund programme to better support people experiencing multiple disadvantage, has ended and we have tried to squeeze the best learning into one report. Proud to have contributed to this one: long term evaluations are rare! @CFE_Ltd Read more👇
How to summarise eight years of learning from the @TNLComFund Fulfilling Lives programme? Context is important. Look at how the landscape around multiple disadvantage has changed over the last 8 years. #seethefullpicture @CFE_Ltd Full report here👇 tinyurl.com/2p8heskk

Rode 11 miles to work in the rain this morning, but still reckon I feel loads better than if I had sat in the car for that journey. Thread by @missbutlerbikes 👇for inspiration! Also wanted to share my favourite #activetravel image.
Replying to @missbutlerbikes
Here's some top tips for active commuting I wrote for @OSleisure getoutside.ordnancesurvey.co… Number 5 helped lecturer @steeley84 get on her bike to work recently. (If you have any questions send them on over).
