Rochdale Cycling Without Age

Rochdale Cycling Without Age is a small voluntary organisation that has recently been set up to get older people out on bike rides so that they can feel the wind in their hair, connect with nature and with other people.

Our aim is to reduce loneliness and social isolation for older people who live in Pennines Township.  With the help of funding from Pennines Township, we have recently taken delivery of our first specially adapted bicycle known as a Trishaw.
