Launching the first UK children’s walking and cycling index

Launching the first UK children’s walking and cycling index

We partnered with a leading sustainable charity organisation, Sustrans, who surveyed over 1,000 children across the UK to better understand the barriers preventing them and their families from travelling actively

We want to combat declining numbers of children cycling and increase the opportunities for children to learn important life skills and have access to cycling's physical and mental health benefits

We hope the findings identified in the Children’s Walking and Cycling Index will be timely support for transport decisionmakers to influence future policy, during a time where the UK cycling and walking investment strategy is being updated.
