We provide our service users with safe cycling experiences on traffic-free cycle paths or quiet lanes. Enabled through one-to-one supervision, on a range of standard and specially adapted cycles matched to the requirements of each individual.
We currently use part of the Sustrans NCN1 route through the beautiful Halesworth Millennium Green; the path is only used by pedestrians, dog walkers and cyclists.
The route passes through grazing pastures (occasionally cattle may be present), is around 1.2 miles in total, and typically lasts 30 to 40 minutes.
Sessions are delivered by trained volunteers. Helmets and tabards are provided.
Sessions run on alternate Tuesdays, each with three sessions as follows:
10:30 - 11:30am
11:30 - 12:30am
11:30 - 12:30am
We normally run April – October, but we may close sessions in extreme weather conditions.
The suggested donation for each client is £5 per session.
Note: a carer or responsible adult must normally accompany each client, donation-free. Depending on your cycling ability, and if you do not normally require a carer or responsible adult with you, please make this clear on the client registration form so that we can assess all rider needs.
If you want to bring your own bike, please include it on the form. We can provide bikes for carers, but if they have certain needs or preferences too, then please tell us.
If you'd like to join us for a ride, please complete the 'Client Service User Form' from the 'Documents' page and return it to us at Info@bansuffolk.co.uk.
