What does Wheels for All mean to me - Eleanor

My story
“Since finding Wheels for All Bath&West in June 2015, I have started cycling with various projects across Bristol and the surrounding area. I have seen the Bath Wheels for All group transform into a popular, busy, fun active cycling group with a strong social element. The catalyst for these changes were the taking over of this club by Cycling Projects in early 2016.

At the start of my cycling journey, I initially used Wheels for All Bath&West for trying out hand-cycling. Without this I wouldn’t have known I could cycle and it wouldn’t have opened my life up to future opportunities, cycling and others!

With knowledgeable employees and volunteers, Wheels for All Bath&West has enabled me to source other projects and even enter charity runs on hand-cycles! I take a hand-cycle on holiday to Cornwall and have enriched my life, body and mind on lovely rides with the cycle. Without Wheels for All Bath&West none of this would be possible!

On a personal level, I can say that it has enhanced my social and physical life. Not only have I met a great friend, I have been able, with the help of Chris and the team to increase my cycling network and have been recognised in two cycling groups as an inspirational cyclist.

Physically, cycling has enabled me to continue to maintain the muscle strength and movement I have whilst seeing improvements in my daily life. As my confidence has grown I have been able to use a recumbent trike as well as various hand-cycles.

I would like to take this opportunity to say a massive Thank You to Chris and the team at Wheels for All Bath&West for all their hard work and dedication to the group and cycling!”
