Terrible that a local NHS Keyworker cant lock his bike outside the Hospital to go to work without this happening. Lending him a bike to ride to work until we sort this one out. What is wrong with people! #freebikes4kids #community #cycling #recycle #giving – at Newport, Wales

I'm looking to speak to people who have experienced the hidden benefits of e-bikes, particularly those who are injured or have different mobility needs. It's for a potential newspaper article. If you are that person or know someone, please get in touch! DMs open.

It’s World Car Free Day this week. Tomorrow (Tuesday 22nd September), motorists are encouraged to give up their cars for a day. We feel that the humble bicycle is the perfect tool to create urban freedom for happier lives! πŸ“·: @knowjack #WorldCarFreeDay #MyBrompton

Are you feeling inspired to take up cycling? Want to try out an eBike for free? Whether your motivation is to get fit, save money, travel more efficiently, whether it's a lifestyle change or a taster experience then @NELFT staff can get in touch for support and information.

Remembering Dr Kate Granger and her inspirational campaign: #HelloMyNameIs that reminds us it’s the small acts of kindness that can have the biggest impact on patient care.πŸ’™
Today is International #HelloMyNameIs day. We are incredibly proud that thousands of staff members have pledged their support to the campaign. Today we remember @GrangerKate, a patient but also our colleague, and the legacy she has left the NHS and organisations around the world.
Elizabeth, student nurse, UCLH: "I've just been out on a ride and enjoyed it immensely! Thank you so much, I love it. Looking forward to starting back at the hospital and my new commute." #Bikes #cycling #cleanair #SafeTravels #RoadSafety #NHS #keyworkers #AirPollution

Katie is a physio working with recovering Covid patients. This Apollo town bike is nothing fancy but it gets her to work, quicker and safer than the bus. #NHS #bikes #cycling #cleanair #SafeTravels πŸš²πŸŒˆπŸš²πŸ‘¨β€βš•οΈπŸ’™πŸŒ³πŸ₯

Are you someone who thinks ebikes are cheating? Good to consider how ebikes can make journeys by bike possible when they may not be easy without electric assistance. Enabling more. Not sure? Try out @FreebikeUK bikes. We have a small fleet at JAC free for @NELFT staff.
