School Route Audits

Are you passionate about creating safer and more enjoyable walking routes for children? We invite you to participate in our School Route Audits (SRAs)!

This initiative aims to evaluate and improve the walking environment around schools, including streets, parks, and estates used by pupils on their daily journeys.

By joining your local audit team, you'll have the opportunity to:

  • Assess the quality of walking routes and identify areas for improvement.
  • Collaborate with a dedicated team to enhance the safety and accessibility of school routes.
  • Make a positive impact on your community by ensuring a better walking experience for everyone.

Your insights and feedback in the surveys are invaluable to us. Together, we can make walking to school safer and more accessible for our children.
