Every Child Matters – Effects of Pollution and Safety

New SDC Report: Every Child's Future Matters Are poorly designed roads and housing developments invading children's space? The SDC has this week published its latest report, Every Child's Future Matters, which explores the profound impact that the local environment has on children, including excessive house levels, increased pollution and safety fears. The report argues that the key outcomes of health, safety and enjoyment will not be met without considering the environment. Key recommendations include: where possible, ensuring schools and nurseries include green areas within their estates and designing new housing developments around children's needs.
