Cycle Sisters creates accessible and empowering spaces for Muslim and ethnically diverse women to cycle and become more healthy, confident and connected.
The charity has developed a successful model of volunteer-led cycle groups which create a fun, supportive and empowering environment to help overcome barriers such as:
- Confidence and skills
- Family/home commitments
- Financial
- Negative cultural attitudes
- Lack of role models
- Logistics e.g. clothing
- Racism and Islamophobia
- Safety fears
Cycle groups offer inclusive opportunities to cycle while our partnership work with local and national cycling organisations helps to tackle stereotypes and make cycling more accessible and diverse.
