It's shocking the percentage of people who have no access to green spaces. "Who is missing?" is such a great question!

'Today, our collective visibility matters. Public footpaths stay open and clear because people walk them regularly. Parks in cities receive investment when decision makers know they are well used. The diversity of queer lives is celebrated when we take to the streets in Pride marches.'

I love the intersectionality of this post. Big love!
