Cycling 4 All in North Wales is an all ability cycling project with a specially built track and a wide range of specialist trikes, bikes, tandems and wheelchair cycles meaning that people with many different abilities can experience the joy and health benefits of cycling. The service is based at Alyn Waters Country Park near Wrexham, and attracts users from all over north-east Wales. Our aims are to improve people’s chances in life by increasing the range of opportunities to be active, to enhance the life skills of both users and the volunteers who support them, and to enable people to lead healthier and more active lives.
Cycling 4 All has been delivering a quality bike hire service for the disabled community in North Wales for ten years. The service was initially established with a Big Lottery grant, with assistance from the Health Board and Wrexham County Borough Council, and managed as part of Groundwork North Wales’ portfolio of projects. As a consequence of planned reductions in public sector funding and with the objective of ensuring sustainability, Cycling 4 All was established as a separate organisation in January 2015, and registered as an independent charity in May 2015.
