Hi Aoife,
Thanks for sharing your experiences here. I can only imagine how treacherous the conditions are on winter mornings. I agree with you in terms of not remembering weather conditions like we are currently experiencing when I was younger – what strikes me now is the ‘extremes’ we are getting – temperatures not rising above 0 degrees for a week in winter and temperatures not falling below 20 degrees for a week in May!
You have chosen 3 simple, but effective ways of making a difference locally. If measures like these were undertaken on a widespread basis, there’s a real chance that there would be greater widespread public awareness of the need for further action .
