Autism Family Support is excited to launch Pedal Together, a fun, inclusive and empowering cycling confidence project created especially for Asian women and girls, including autistic participants, women with additional needs, mothers, daughters and female carers across Oldham.
💜 Whether you’re completely new to cycling or simply looking to build your confidence, this project offers a safe, welcoming and supportive space where women and girls can learn, connect and thrive together.
Funded through the Women & Girls Active Travel Small Grants Programme, Pedal Together aims to remove barriers that often prevent women and girls from accessing cycling and active travel opportunities. Through engaging wellbeing activities and practical cycling sessions, participants will gain confidence, improve their physical and mental wellbeing, and enjoy spending time outdoors with others from their community.
✨ No experience needed – just bring yourself and a willingness to have fun!
Participants will have the opportunity to:
✅ Learn about the physical and mental health benefits of cycling
✅ Build confidence in a safe, supportive female-only environment
✅ Take part in beginner-friendly guided cycling activities
✅ Improve wellbeing through outdoor exercise and social connection
✅ Meet and connect with other women and girls from similar backgrounds
✅ Discover local active travel opportunities
✅ Use bicycles and safety equipment provided during the sessions
✅ Develop the confidence to continue cycling independently
🌈 All activities will be delivered at a pace that suits individual needs and abilities.
