Our Mission and Purpose

We want to level the playing field so that everyone, regardless of ability or background, can take part in sport and physical activity. We aim to put inclusion at the heart of community sport. We do this through our own work and through working in cross-sector partnership with others at local, regional and national level.

Cycling is a life-skill that can greatly enhance both an individual's personal health & well-being and also the communities they live in.

We believe every young person should have

• Access to a bike
• The skills and confidence to ride it
• Somewhere local, safe and exciting to enjoy riding

However…*

• 78% of disabled people never cycle
• 76% of women never cycle
• 75% of people at risk of deprivation never cycle
• 74% of people from ethnic minorities never cycle
• Only 2% of all children cycle to school

COVID 19 has exacerbated these inequalities and increased the importance of local, inclusive and exciting cycling opportunities, especially in deprived areas.
