Bikeability cycle training

Mark Smith (Physical Activity and Health Operations Manager at Derby City Council which facilitates Bikeability training for some schools in Derby City and Derbyshire), has emailed primary and junior phase schools about whether they receive Bikeability cycle training.

Bikeability cycle training should be free to schools and Mark would like to ensure schools currently participating are able to do so with their providers, and connect schools who don’t receive free training to a provider, ensuring every child in Derbyshire can learn to ride and develop the skills and confidence to cycle independently.

Please reply to Mark directly or email him on Mark.Smith@derby.gov.uk
