Pedal it Forward

Give someone the chance to ride!
Whether you’re looking to give support, or hoping to receive it, Pedal It Forward is here for you.

Pedal It Forward is a community-powered initiative helping Canberrans facing financial hardship access the joy, freedom, and wellbeing that comes from riding a bike. Whether it’s a child learning to ride, a single parent building road confidence, or an older adult getting on a bike for the first time, we believe cycling should be for everyone.

This program offers subsidised spots in Pedal Power’s learn-to-ride courses and programs for people who need a little extra help. It’s part of our commitment to equity, diversity, and our vision of Any Bike, Anytime, Anywhere.

Need support?

You may be eligible for a subsidised spot if you:

• Hold a Commonwealth Health Care Card

• Are part of a single-parent household with demonstrated financial need

• Are experiencing temporary financial hardship (case-by-case basis)

Please note: subsidies apply to participation in our cycling programs, not membership discounts.

Want to help others ride?

Your donation, big or small, helps break down barriers for someone in your community. Through secure, tax-deductible contributions via the Australian Sports Foundation, you can make a real difference in someone’s life.

You can also support by:

• Donating pre-loved bikes or cycling gear

• Volunteering your time at events or courses

Thank you
Every contribution, whether it’s time, money, or gear, helps build a more inclusive and connected cycling community. Together, we can Pedal It Forward.
