Editorial policy
Active City Briefing aims to make city leisure easier to think about and plan. We write clearly, separate general ideas from claims that require verification, and treat readers as people making their own choices.
Accuracy and care
We check factual claims against suitable sources before publication and revise material when reliable information shows it needs updating. Suggestions are offered as ideas, not promises about opening hours, access, availability or conditions; readers should check current details before setting out.
Independence
Editorial choices are made for relevance to the publication and its readers. A commercial relationship does not guarantee coverage or a favourable account, and contributors should make any relevant interests clear to the editor.
Corrections
If you spot an error, use the Contact page and identify the article and passage as clearly as possible. We review correction requests, amend confirmed errors and clarify meaningful changes in the article where appropriate.
Partner material and illustrations
Paid, gifted or otherwise arranged partner material is clearly labelled so readers can distinguish it from independent editorial coverage. Some illustrations may be generated with AI; such images are illustrative and are not documentary evidence.
A good city day leaves room to wander
A plan can help you begin, but it should not take over the day. We look for ways to explore with curiosity, without turning every spare hour into a checklist.
