Free cycle stands for Swindon
Life Cycle and Swindon Borough Council have launched a new joint initiative offering free cycle stands to local organisations.
Funded by Active Travel England through Swindon Borough Council, and delivered through Life Cycle’s Take a Stand® programme, the scheme provides eligible Swindon businesses, charities and community organisations with up to four Sheffield cycle stands, creating eight secure cycle parking spaces, with free delivery and installation included.
Why Take a Stand?
By removing the cost of installing cycle parking, the scheme makes it easier for people to choose cycling for everyday journeys. This supports healthier lifestyles, helps reduce carbon emissions, and encourages increased footfall to community organisations.
“The Take a Stand scheme is a fantastic way for small organisations to provide cycle parking for their staff, visitors and customers, which in turn helps those individuals to travel sustainably, making a more pleasant environment for everyone. I would encourage any organisation that has space to take up this brilliant offer.” - Councillor Mike Davies, Swindon Borough Council
How to apply
Swindon organisations can apply for up to four Sheffield cycle stands (eight spaces), with delivery and installation included. Applications are open until all stands are allocated, and demand is expected to be high, so early applications are encouraged! Please help us spread the word and share with any organisations you think could benefit.
