Details

The Cycle Access Fund supports those least likely to have access to a bike and provides capital grants to organisations through four different funding strands:

  • Individual Bike Ownership
  • Shared Use
  • Recycle
  • Repair

Enabling individuals to access a bike in an affordable, easy and convenient way is a vital contribution to reducing health and income inequality. It makes our communities safer and more pleasant by reducing short car journeys. Cycling UK know that many people in Scotland experience barriers to accessing a cycle and, by offering their funding across different strands, they aim to tackle different barriers and help more people to cycle.
