Cycle Share Fund
About the Cycle Share Fund
Grants from this fund will enable organisations to purchase cycles and equipment for schemes that provide people with access to a bike that they don’t own.
Owning a cycle is not the best option for everyone. Upfront costs of buying a bike are a significant barrier, but people may also feel unsure about which cycle is best for them, have concerns about maintaining a cycle or not have anywhere safe to store it.
That’s why this fund will support affordable and convenient models that allow people to use a bike without buying one. Removing these barriers to cycling will benefit people financially, support their health and wellbeing and benefit local communities and our environment.
