Wheels for Empowerment Community Ride
Hi everyone!
I hope you’re all doing great! I’m excited to announce that I’m hosting a special bike ride on June 23rd to support World Bicycle Relief's Pedal to Empower campaign to help mobilise women and girls in need to change their lives with bikes.
When placed in the hands of women and girls, bicycles become vehicles of change that can uplift generations. The gift of a bicycle gives someone the capability to commute, access education, healthcare, and economic opportunities, leading to a more empowered life.

I’ll be doing a test ride soon to make sure everything is set, and I’d love to have some of you join me if you’re free. We’ll also have portable speakers for some fun tunes along the way and rest stops for refreshments. Safety is key, so don’t forget your helmets, and no headphones please! I encourage you to have conversations with others as we cycle!
Every donation makes a difference, and a contribution of £120 helps put a brand-new Buffalo Bicycle into the hands of a woman or girl in need. The Buffalo Bicycle is designed for rugged terrain and heavy loads, making it a perfect tool for individuals in developing regions. Our love for cycling can make a huge difference.
Let’s get together for a shared fun ride with friends and make a positive impact! Donations are optional, but encouraged. Whether it’s a little or a lot, every bit goes to World Bicycle Relief. Even if you can’t donate, join us to help reach our 500k distance goal! Every ride counts.
If you want to pedal along, click 'Join the Team' and be a part of the fun on June 23rd at 1PM, starting from Victoria Park, Pavilion Cafe. If you want to support with a donation, you will be helping get more women and girls on bikes in countries around the world to achieve independence and thrive.
Please let me know if you’re interested or if you have any questions. Tell your friends to tell their friends – the more, the merrier!
See you on the 23rd!
Cheers,
Csilla
Note: Easy bike ride. Great for any fitness level. Mostly paved surfaces. Suitable for all skill levels.
