Junaid Ibrahim1 year ago The Newham Cycling League is a free, monthly cycling race series for primary school pupils in Years 3–6 across the borough. Each session will be held at local parks — Plashet Park, Stratford Park, and Central Park — with rotating formats and year groups to ensure all schools have access.The League is designed to increase cycling participation in Newham, where low bike ownership and limited access to training mean many children miss out on the physical, social, and mental benefits of cycling. By providing free bikes, helmets, and fully staffed events, we remove barriers to participation and give children a safe, structured environment to ride.A running leaderboard across schools will foster excitement, friendly competition, and a sense of achievement, while also encouraging healthy, regular activity. From previous projects, we know children who engage with our programmes begin cycling more frequently, including to school and around their neighbourhoods.Delivered by local British Cycling–qualified coaches, supported by volunteers and school staff, the League will reach around 330 children directly, with broader benefits for families and communities. With funding, we can provide high-quality, inclusive, and sustainable events that build confidence, health, and community pride across Newham.
