Young children in Redbridge will be taught balance control exercises when the Council's Road Safety Team runs a series of cycling sessions throughout the summer holidays.The free cycling sessions for children aged between five and nine years will run at various locations across the Borough on Thursday 6 August and Thursday 13 August.
The sessions will be split into two age groups; five and six year-olds and seven to nine year-olds. Children wishing to take part must be competent on two-wheeled bikes. We are unable to accept children on trikes, still using stabilisers or those who can't ride unaided on two wheels.
Sessions will last an hour and will take place in a safe environment where children can learn and practice new skills away from roads and traffic.
Anyone wishing to take part must live or go to school in the Borough and all places must be booked in advanced.
Places are limited and will be allocated on a first come first served basis. If you do not book a place we are afraid your child will be unable to take part in the sessions.
For further information or for an application form please call 020 8708 3692 or email vicky.blackburn@redbridge.gov.uk
