: Royal Borough provides bikes to schools to help with road safety education : Cookham Webmaster June 17, 2022, 05:35:08 PM Bicycles are being given to 43 first and primary schools across the borough to assist with road safety education.
Each school will be provided with six balance bikes – training bikes without pedals - six pedal bikes, 12 helmets, as well as an equipment kit bag and training to aid learning as part of the My Travel Choices project, which is being part funded by South Western Railway. The project aims to give children easy and regular access to a bike at an early age, help them learn how to ride and control a bike, and enhance the road safety and cycling proficiency programmes that are already being provided to schools. It also aims to give children an understanding of the sustainable travel options available to them from a young age and encourage their use. |
