By 2035, over 1/2 of children in some areas could be overweight or obese. The causes are complex, but the need for action is clear. Govt says it's “considering how best to build physical activity into children's lives”—Bikeability is already doing just that.

Every child deserves a safe way to walk or cycle to school. @ollyglover.bsky.social is pushing for real investment in safer streets & Bikeability training—so children have the confidence and freedom to travel actively. This is about more than roads. It’s about futures.

Bikeability is a family that stretches across the country. This month we're in @hertscc.bsky.social, with instructor Katrin. From wobbly first rides in Germany to inspiring the children with @hertscww.bsky.social, Katrin’s journey is all about people, passion, and pedaling. ⬇

Cycle to School Week is back! Supported by NatWest Rooster Money 🚲🏫 Saddle up for #CycleToSchoolWeek 2025 from 13-17 October for your school, your family, and the planet! 🌎 Sign up and be the first to hear about this year's campaign at cycletoschoolweek.com

What an incredibly well-attended Westminster Hall debate - apparently 33 MPs were there! They highlighted lots of elements which help more families walking, wheeling or cycling to school, from cycle training to tackling pavement parking.

Yesterday MPs debated Road Safety and Active Travel to School—and a powerful theme emerged: the transformative impact of Bikeability. Thanks to @ollyglover.bsky.social for securing the debate & making the case for empowering every child with the skills to cycle confidently and safely. 🧵

Happy #EarthDay! 🌍 Pedal with purpose and discover how every ride helps the planet. Check out our latest blog on the environmental benefits of cycling — because a better world starts with cycle confidence for our next generation. 🚴‍♀️

Who says firefighters only tackle flames? Oxfordshire Fire and Rescue Service are blazing a different trail — they’re the only fire service in the UK delivering Bikeability training too! 🚲🔥 Huge congrats to the team for being recognised at the @blenheimpalace.bsky.social ceremony.
