Cycling Without Age transforms communities by reconnecting older adults with the outdoors through specially designed trishaw rides. This grassroots movement creates meaningful intergenerational relationships whilst giving elderly passengers "the right to wind in their hair."

The initiative addresses the growing problem of social isolation amongst older adults, which research shows significantly impacts longevity and quality of life. It's designed for care homes, community groups, individuals, and local businesses who want to make a difference in their community.

Starting a chapter involves signing an affiliate agreement, building a volunteer team, and acquiring a specially designed trishaw. Volunteers become "cycle pilots" who take elderly passengers on regular rides through their local area, sharing stories and creating new friendships.

The community benefits include reduced loneliness amongst elderly residents, stronger intergenerational connections, and a more inclusive community atmosphere. Passengers report better sleep, improved appetite, and reduced need for medication. As an affiliate, you'll receive access to the global Cycling Without Age network, training resources, brand materials, and ongoing support to help establish your local chapter successfully.
