Enable - Edition 7

2 Welcome to the latest edition of Enable – the newsletter for the national Wheels for All movement. EDITION 7 Cycling Projects is a national charity based in the North West. We have been delivering inclusive cycling initiatives in local communities since 1991. Our aim is to encourage health improvement, social inclusion and to provide adapted cycling for anyone with a disability or differing needs.

See contact details on the back page What a pleasure it is to work with the national Wheels for all movement and support cycling projects to grow the fantastic work that you all do! Activity Alliance focuses on Disability, Inclusion and Sport and everything we do is intended to help organisations involve disabled people in sport and activity. As a keen cyclist myself, I’m always promoting the pleasure that comes from getting on a bike. However, we know that for so many disabled people that opportunity is all too rare - so lets work together to promote the benefits and deliver many more places where cycling can genuinely be for all. Edition 7 of Enable is full of amazing case studies to showcase the work that so many people - often dedicated volunteers - deliver all year round. You can read in the words (and see in the pictures!) the difference being made to so many people’s lives. I’m also keen to work with Wheels for All to influence how the “world of cycling” evolves to ensure wider inclusion right across the range of opportunities (from clubs and cycling events to competition) I hope you enjoy reading this information packed edition as much as I did!
