Inclusive cycling is coming to Gateshead

May26

Working with Get Cycling, the council will be trialling a range of cycles available for people with disabilities and health conditions. This will include a wheelchair platform bike, trikes and hand cycles to assist in building confidence and independence in cycling. 

Whether you have a disability, health condition, limited mobility, use a wheelchair or just lacking confidence on a 2-wheel bike, there is a session for you. 

Join us at Gateshead Leisure Centre: 

  • adults and older children: every Friday starting 8 May, between 10 and 2pm  
  • family session (younger children, parents and carers): Friday 29 May, between 10 am and 2pm  

All sessions are free between Friday 8 May and Friday 24 July. Following this, sessions will require a small fee. 

We will value your feedback from these sessions to help inform the long-term Inclusive Cycling programme in Gateshead.
