Removing barriers to cycling

Wheels for Wellbeing (WfW) is an award-winning charity supporting disabled people of all ages and abilities to enjoy the benefits of cycling.

Cycling can be easier than walking, a way to keep independent, fit and healthy, a mobility aid, and a useful form of everyday transport.

Many aren’t aware of the fact that disabled people cycle. Growing numbers do and use standard bicycles, as well as non-standard cycles.

Participant Feedback

I think this is a wonderful scheme for kids with special needs, where they can practise their cycling skills in a very safe place.

I like the track because it is safe and I like seeing all my friends. I ride really fast because I want to cycle in the Special Olympics.

You provide something we can’t do elsewhere. You provide equipment that all people across the impairments can use.

CAMPAIGNING FOR INCLUSIVE CYCLING

In 2015 we supported 1200 disabled participants aged 5 – 97 who faced significant barriers to exercise. 44% had never cycled before; others had tried many years ago, or before life-changing injury or illness.

“Because of my disability I thought I’d never be able to ride… finding I can is amazing”
