Shift
When more people ride bikes to get around, the whole community benefits. It improves people’s health and wellbeing, reduces air pollution and traffic congestion, and brings economic benefits too. On top of all that, it’s a cheap and convenient way to get around and is loads of fun.

Do you want to help more people in your community to cycle for short everyday journeys and get supported with a grant of up to £1500? If you are based in Scotland Shift is here to help.
Using modules specially designed by Cycling UK you can access expert support as well as funding to run activities that will help people jump on a bike, instead of into their car.
From cycle training and confidence boosting sessions to cargo bike trials for local businesses, we will help your ideas flourish. To apply, contact one of our local development officers listed below. They will be there to support you every step of the way, with access to training, networking and expert advice.

As well as helping to create healthier, happier communities, you’ll receive an excellent package of support from Cycling UK, including:
Expert advice - we’ll be on hand to help your group or organisation get the best results out of your sessions.
Specialist training and support through our extensive training resources and local development officers.
Support with marketing and promotions, via free guides and marketing materials.
Get in touch today and begin your Shift journey

If you haven’t delivered cycle training or workshops before or for a while, there is plenty of support on hand to get you started. Local development officers are situated around Scotland to offer support and advice along the way.
When you get in touch, they’ll discuss your skills and requirements so you can make your application from there. You can be assured our friendly advisors will help you to get started quickly and easily.
For any queries please contact our development officers. Contact details are at the bottom of this page. There is also a resources page or access our partner pack below to read more.
