Millwall Community Trust is proud to be supporting Walk to School Week 2024.
The week-long celebration runs from Monday 20th May - Friday 24th May 2024.
Why does Walking to School matter?
HAPPIER CHILDREN
It’s been proven that children who do some form of exercise, especially a walk before school, do better in class because they arrive refreshed, fit and ready to learn.
LESS CONGESTION
During morning peak traffic times, one in five cars on the road are taking children school, contributing to congestion, air pollution and carbon emissions.
CLEANER AIR
The school run alone is responsible for generating half a million tonnes of CO2 per year (which is more than some small countries!). Imagine what we could achieve if we began converting some of these rides to strides?
