Southwark

The London Borough of Southwark is committed to developing cycling and has ear-marked £4m to make the borough one of the most bike-friendly in the capital. Cycling is an environmentally-friendly way to travel while promoting a healthy, energetic lifestyle. Anybody who lives, works or studies in the borough is entitled to the following services:

 

FREE Cycle Skills: Get tailored training at a level suited to your needs, or book a lesson for the family (with up to three participants)! Choose from Basic (off-road environment), Urban (quiet local roads) or Advanced (complex junctions and busy roads).

Please note that due to current social distancing measures we are unable to teach people to cycle who are complete beginners. We hope to resume this service soon.
