British Cycling: Workplaces
Published 3 May 2011
Cycling has a huge role to play in building happy, healthy, motivated and green workplaces. Our Workplaces programme goes way beyond encouraging cycle commuting or traditional cycling challenges. Instead we take a holistic approach to creating a cycling workplace, focusing on the fun of cycling and the health and wellbeing of employees.
Using our cycling and workplace health expertise, we’ll work with you to create a bespoke package for your workplace. From companies and organisations to councils and charities, we can help create more active, healthier and sustainable cycling workplaces and communities. Becoming a cycling workplace will help your business achieve a wide range of sustainability, transport, health and environmental objectives.
British Cycling can help everyone get involved so that all staff can have some fun on a bike. For the cycling enthusiasts in the workplace, we offer support to help them take those next steps into cycle commuting.
