Achieving an active Scotland for all: ebikes, adapted cycles and bike shares

On Wednesday 25 August 2021, Energy Saving Trust is hosting an afternoon of virtual presentations, panel discussions and breakout sessions that will explore how we can enable access to cycling for everyone in Scotland.

You will hear from a range of expert speakers discussing how we can achieve an active nation and green recovery in an inclusive way. There will also be the opportunity to meet several funders and project leaders helping to achieve this goal.

The event will cover the following topics:

• Providing a sustainable all-ability cycling service.

• Building blocks for inclusion in cycling for disabled people.

• Access to ebikes in rural Scotland and rural bike shares.

• eBike, adapted and rural cycle projects in Scotland.

• Operating an inclusive public bike share scheme.

• Removing infrastructure barriers.

Are you a decision maker, planner or do you work in the public or third sector? Do you champion accessibility, inclusion and staying active?

This event is for transport and industry professionals, anyone working with disabled and elderly individuals and people in rural areas, who want to learn about accessibility and cycling. Everyone is welcome!

This is a great chance to learn about how barriers to cycling are being tackled in Scotland and beyond.
