From Lancashire County Council: Unfortunately owing to current Covid 19 restrictions and school closure many pupils have missed out on the opportunity to learn to ride a bike training or Bikeability Cycle training.

Reception and KS1:I am delighted to invite any non-riders to our free summer holiday sessions. We will be providing all the necessary equipment which will be cleaned by our team and parents will be asked to sanitise with our wipes before your child uses the equipment. These sessions will be approximately 2 hours and parents must remain with their child to assist learning as our instructors will need to keep as socially distant as possible. We are struggling to confirm the exact locations around the county, again owing to Covid restrictions only just being lifted. I need to ask you to follow either of these 2 links for a more up to date invitation:

I am delighted to invite any Year 5, 6 or 7 pupils to our free summer holiday sessions. Level 1 & 2 will be delivered together with Level 1 first in the morning followed immediately by Level 2 which will run over 2 consecutive day after which on the 2nd afternoon Level 3 will be on offer to those wishing to advance. Your own equipment will be required; we are not able to lend any equipment and cycle must be in working order.

This year owing to Covid conditions we are not able to handle equipment. We are struggling to confirm the exact locations around the county, again owing to Covid restrictions only just being lifted. I need to ask you to follow either of these 2 links for a more up to date invitation:
