      Supporting Womens & Girls' cycling

      While the profile of women’s sports has made significant steps forward in recent times, progress is still slow, and we are a long way from equality of opportunity, participation and recognition. This is particularly the case in cycling, where males dominate in all levels of the sport from leisure participation to competition.

      This community project seeks to address the imbalance by providing support to the Scottish Cycling’s Women and Girls Strategy. The strategy has several key focus areas, including:

      1. Getting more women and girls on bikes to experience the physical and mental health benefits of cycling.
      2. To encourage more women, especially younger women, to participate in competition.
      3. To celebrate the role women and girls play in the Scottish cycling community.

      Via financial support from the WCCF and volunteering Wilderness’ staff expertise, we believe this project can amplify the vision and core message of equality and empowerment in women’s cycling. From increasing the number of women in cycling clubs, to female only rides, to making racing more accessible in all of the different disciplines, there’s lots we can do and we hope the WCCF can make a small contribution to the success of the action plan.
