WE SAID NO
Sefton Air Pollution. Take a deep breath.
May 16, 2024 Season 1 Episode 13
Save Rimrose Valley

In this special edition of our podcast series we are revisiting the topic of air pollution. We last covered this in 2021 and heard about just some of the impacts the poor air quality in our part of Sefton has on people’s lives. 

In this episode, we delve even deeper into the subject. Our charity, Rimrose Valley Friends, recently secured funding to raise awareness of this issue from Community Foundation for Merseyside’s “Breathe Better Air Fund”. As part of our “Let’s put the brakes on pollution” project we’ll be learning not just about the issues we experience today, but crucially, what we as individuals can do about it.

Here are some links for further information of some of the subjects covered in this episode.
