More than a Bike Scheme

The More than a Bike scheme, is sponsored by Maritime Belfast Trust and Sustrans, who came together with Migrant Help to offer individuals seeking sanctuary in Belfast refurbished bicycles, safety equipment and cycling skills training.

As part of the Sustrans Community Active Travel Programme (CAPT), funded by the Public Health Agency, a six-week training programme was delivered teaching 10 participants cycling skills on a series of led bicycle rides which familiarise them with local cycle routes including the Maritime Mile, and infrastructure. Big Loop Bikes provided refurbished bicycles.
