Long standing Wheeler, Dave Tuckwell, recently attended a free cycle training session provided by Tower Hamlets. Dave tells us a little more about the training and his experience on the course:

Free family cycle training sessions will be taking place in Mile End Park this August. The training is open to parents and accompanying children in years 3-7 who have not received cycle training in school.

Bicycles are provided for those that require them and the training will take place from outside Mile End Stadium on Sundays at 11am-1pm from 11th August to 1st September inclusive.

Art Spokes is a local social enterprise set up by Sarah Hammond in 2012 providing creative workshops for primary schools.

Their star project, Best Bikers for children, puts "cycling, the environment and healthy living centre stage of the school" whilst "helping promote a cycling culture and positive attitudes towards active travel and healthy life styles amongst their peers, staff and parents".
