MCRactive is investing into Cycling UK’s Big Bike Revival Fund to bring more cycling opportunities to Manchester groups.
Many Manchester organisations have successfully applied for this funding in the last few years, to put on a great range of cycling opportunities in the city! Including led rides, Learn to Ride and bike maintenance sessions.
Who benefits from the Big Bike Revival?
The Big Bike Revival programme is for people returning to cycling, or those starting as a complete beginner. In other words, it’s for people who do not cycle on a regular basis.
It's all about engaging the programme's target audience; people with social, economic and health needs; people from diverse backgrounds; people facing multiple challenges.
Who can apply?
Delivery partners can apply for up to £3,000 and are typically volunteer led-groups, not-for-profit organisations and social enterprises that are rooted in local communities and working to address a range of local needs.
They are experienced in engaging with non-regular cyclists and people in need in terms of social, economic and health deprivation. Applications from organisations who do not have a traditional cycling focus are also encouraged.
