Inclusive Cycling for Adults

Overview

Bike Active North Suffolk (BANS) promotes cycling as a gentle form of exercise within the beautiful rural environment, benefiting both physical and mental well-being and combating social isolation. 100% delivered by a dedicated team of trained volunteers, BANS specialises in providing adapted cycling opportunities for any adult with a disability or differing needs. We utilise a range of adapted bikes, carefully matched to each client's individual needs, ensuring a comfortable and enjoyable experience. Cycling offers numerous physical health benefits, including improved cardiovascular health, increased muscle strength and endurance, and enhanced joint mobility – all particularly valuable for individuals with disabilities. Furthermore, engaging in physical activity outdoors has proven positive effects on mental health, reducing stress, improving mood, and boosting self-esteem.

Meeting point instructions:

Rides start from the basketball area on Town Park. What Three Words' location is: ///delivers.tides.vans

Accessibility Information:

The ride start point is accessible by wheelchair although it is approximately 275m from the accessible parking bays in the Thoroughfare (town centre) Car Park. If this is likely to cause you a problem please speak to us as we can work with you to find a solution. There are public toilets in the Town Park on the route to our start point. The accessible toilet facility is in the Thoroughfare Car Park. The Halesworth Thoroughfare car park is accessible from the A144 Saxons Way. From the car park, on foot follow the Sustrans NCN1 cycle signs, proceeding under the underpass at the far end of the car park. Walk through the Town Park and turn right just after you cross the wooden bridge over the Town River. Pass the skateboard park to find the BANS start and finish point at the basketball area (the entrance to our session route on the Millennium Green is straight ahead). The 'What Three Words' location is: ///delivers.tides.vans.
