Change lives through the joy of cycling

At Wheels for All, everyone deserves the freedom, enjoyment, and confidence that cycling brings — whatever their age, ability, or background.

Our volunteers make this possible. They create welcoming spaces where people learn, have fun, and discover independence through cycling.

“The best thing about volunteering is seeing the happy faces! The riders come back beaming — it’s amazing to be part of that joy.”
Dave, Volunteer
