Communities Programmes: involves working with over 40 community groups and organisations on delivering journey planning, promoting sustainable transport and offering travel advice. Schemes available are Wheels around Witton which shows all the cycling available in the borough, including Connect’s cycling group, Refresh offers and British Cycling; Bimbling around the Park is a walking group for low mobility and tackling isolation; Introduction to Bus Travel assists people who are unfamiliar with using buses or struggle due to medical conditions.
Are you a member of a group or do you run a group? We would love to offer a short workshop when you will get all the up to date information on travel, schemes you can participate in and lots of goodie bags to collect!
The Access to Work Programme: offers advice on journey planning and assistance with travel costs for interviews and employment. If you prefer to cycle we can hire a bike for you instead of costs for travelling by bus. Includes helmet, locks, puncture repair kit etc.
Don’t own a bike? We also have a scheme where you can learn to maintain a bike and renovate a bike then you can have a bike to keep!
Cycle to Work scheme advice available.
