Wheels for Wellbeing were very excited to see this fantastic example of inclusive cycle parking being made available to handcyclists at @kingscollegelondon.bsky.social London, for users to store their cycle safely, indoors, when out and about where regular bike racks fail to meet needs.

The further a journey is, the more barriers Disabled people will usually face to completing it. Moving about in our own homes is usually much easier than making a longer trip around our own communities. Her are some of the barriers many Disabled people experience. What barriers do you face?
A very busy graphic showing, from top to bottom, increasing distance required for activities from tens to hundreds to thousands of metres per trip and a range of the cumulative barriers likely to be encountered on increasing length trips.  

From shortest to longest, activities are moving around own home, moving from home to car/taxi, getting to a bus stop, getting to/around a supermarket/hospital, attending work/education - moving within organisation sites plus commute using public transport, taking children out to nursery/school/activities and play including carrying tired/Disabled children, taking part in local democracy, eg. Standing for election, canvassing, walkabouts, campaigning. 

Associated with the activities cumulative from top to bottom are stairs, broken lift, narrow doors, limited manoeuvring space, need to make trips in tight timeframes, narrow/obstructed paths, need to be supported &/or support others, few fixed supports, difficult weather- wind/ice/heat/rain, poor/uneven surfaces, injury risk from drivers, need to carry items/equipment longer distances, risk of harassment/abuse, inaccessible bus stop, inaccessible bus, risk of falling on moving public transport, noise, crowds, need to address workplace inaccessibility conflicting with need to maintain good relationships with those in power, organisational expectations including timings, personal appearance etc, support needs of children, moving on unmade surfaces (grass, bark, gravel, mud), need to approach many private, often inaccessible homes, increased risk of harassment/abuse.

The bike allowed me to engage in a fun activity, get outside in the fresh air and feel a huge sense of achievement whilst really enjoying myself! The full electric support mode and comfortable seat meant I not needed minimal energy to ride, meaning I could cycle for the first time in years without feeling unwell.

"𝗔 𝗠𝗲𝘀𝘀𝗮𝗴𝗲 𝗳𝗿𝗼𝗺 𝗪𝗵𝗲𝗲𝗹𝘀 𝗳𝗼𝗿 𝗪𝗲𝗹𝗹𝗯𝗲𝗶𝗻𝗴

For the first time in over 10 years, our session fee will be changing.

 From 1 June 2026, increasing from £5 to £𝟳 𝗽𝗲𝗿 𝗰𝘆𝗰𝗹𝗶𝘀𝘁 𝗽𝗲𝗿 𝗵𝗼𝘂𝗿.  PAs, carers and supporters will continue to attend free of charge.

We have tried to avoid increasing our prices for as long as possible, but the costs of running our sessions have continued to rise. Each hour now costs us over £15 per participant to provide, so even with this increase, every session will still be heavily subsidised.

We continue to apply for grants and support from funders to help cover the difference. However, like many charities, it is becoming harder to secure funding in the current climate. We also rely on donations from individuals and companies to help keep our sessions running and accessible.

If you are able to contribute the full cost of a session or support additional attendees, please consider also making a donation when you book

If you know anyone who is looking for a charity to support, we would be very grateful if you could suggest Wheels for Wellbeing. Donations can be made through our website, or by contacting us on 020 7346 8482.
We understand that any increase in cost can be difficult. If the new session fee will cause you concern or make it harder for you to attend, please contact us to discuss.

Thank you for your understanding and continued support."

Focusing on reducing one risk & ignoring the bigger picture can cause harm. Too often Disabled people are discriminated against & hurt by people & organisations who think they're acting to keep us safe. We need to be allowed to judge the risks we take in the same way non-disabled people are.
Graphic titled “Isolation isn't safety” has on the left,a picture of a man who looks really upset sitting in an armchair and another man removing a mobility scooter, saying “we’re removing this for your own good”. Text above this drawing reads “No mobility aid, no accessible routes; no risk of injury while making trips, then below reads worse physical and mental health, worse ability to care for self and others, largely excluded from education/employment, family/friends and society, worse poverty, less able to get help as needed, then in big letters Less Safe. 
On the right, a group of people are using a wheelchair tandem cycle, a powerchair with a clip-on pram, a power-converted wheelchair towing a suitcase, and a sit-to-stand wheelchair. Above reads suitable mobility aid, accessible routes, risk of being injured while making trips. Below reads better physical and mental health, improved ability to care for self and others, more included in education/employment, with family/friends and society, reduced poverty, more able to get help as needed, then in big letters Safer.

Graphic titled “You’ve told us... it’s essential to be able to transport children using mobility aids” has a photo of a man with one leg wearing a flat cap riding an e-assist cargo trike away from the camera with a child in the front compartment. They are on a road, going past a playground. The man is saying “I use an electric cargo trike to do most of the things I would otherwise need a car to do. It’s stable enough to take my granddaughter to school plus it’s powerful enough to carry the weekly shopping. My cargo trike gives me more independence, frees up my wife from having to do everything and makes being a grandfather more fun”.

Thank you so much to everyone who's shared their mobility aid stories and talked about what works for you - and what isn't working yet. Together, we'll keep working for better mobility options for all Disabled people. #EveryJourneyEveryone
Graphic titled “You’ve told us... it’s essential to be able to transport children using mobility aids” has a photo of a man with one leg wearing a flat cap riding an e-assist cargo trike away from the camera with a child in the front compartment. They are on a road, going past a playground. The man is saying “I use an electric cargo trike to do most of the things I would otherwise need a car to do. It’s stable enough to take my granddaughter to school plus it’s powerful enough to carry the weekly shopping. My cargo trike gives me more independence, frees up my wife from having to do everything and makes being a grandfather more fun”.
