Paramedic show and family ride put Bristol's ambulance work and safer-streets campaign in the same frame

Read together, two recent Bristol-area reports connect ambulance work with safer-streets campaigning. BBC Bristol and BBC News Somerset reported on a show about paramedic crews, saying it reveals the realities of crews working out of stations to help millions of people a year [1], [2], [3], [4], [5]. Bristol Cycling Campaign said almost 300 parents and children joined its Kidical Mass Ride around the city centre, with feeder rides from six locations, in a show of support for safer, better cycling [6]. It called the turnout its biggest attendance ever in Bristol [6]. Taken together, the BBC report and the ride report bring ambulance work and family cycling into the same local conversation about safety and support [1], [2], [3], [4], [5], [6].
