Our Ride2School program is under threat 

For 17 years, Bicycle Network's Ride2School team has been setting young Australians up for healthy futures by promoting physical activity as a part of daily life.   

Our program reaches hundreds of thousands of students around the country through bike education workshops, neighbourhood route planning and National Ride2School Day, Australia's biggest celebration of active travel. 

The Victorian Government has funded the program since 2006, but this agreement has come to an end and the future of Ride2School hangs in the balance.    

As a registered health charity, we know the value of bikes and physical activity when it comes to preventative health. Ride2School is our way of passing these tools onto the next generation.  

We've never turned to the public to support our flagship behaviour change program before, but if there's one thing we know about people and bikes, it's that they always stop to help when someone's in need.   

And that's where we find ourselves. Even the smallest of contributions will help set our children up for happy and healthy lives.
