The ride ends. The need for change doesn’t.

For too many women, getting on a bike still means weighing up the risks. A busy main road or a dark, isolated path. Ride alone or wait for company. Take the bike or leave it at home.

Those choices can mean missing out on independence, everyday journeys and something as simple as the joy you felt on our glow rides.

Every woman should have the freedom to cycle without fear holding her back.

Together, we’re making women’s voices heard

Through My ride. Our right, Cycling UK has exposed the barriers women face, brought communities together through glow rides and taken women’s calls for safer cycling directly to the Prime Minister’s door.

Women have shared their experiences. Supporters have added their voices. And people like you have taken to the streets to show how much this matters.

We’ve helped bring attention to the problem. Now we need to keep pressing for action: safer routes, sustained investment and streets designed around the journeys women actually make.

Help turn this momentum into lasting change

Bringing people together is powerful. Keeping their voices heard takes sustained work, and funding.

As a charity, Cycling UK relies on support from people like you. Your donation helps sustain our work: campaigning for safer streets, supporting communities and helping more people build the confidence to cycle.

Glow rides show what happens when women feel welcome on a bike, and in the dark.

Your donation will support Cycling UK’s charitable work wherever it is needed most.
