'Balanceability' returns to help Malvern children learn to ride a bicycle

Malvern Editorial 9th Mar, 2017   0

CHILDREN of Malvern will soon be able to ride a bicycle when the popular Balanceability course returns to town.

The programme takes place on Thursday, March 16 at The Hill Centre, Upton-upon-Severn, with two sessions available at 4.15pm and 5pm.

Balanceability is the UK’s first and only accredited learn to cycle programme which involves a schedule of fun activities which build confidence, spatial awareness and balance skills as well as enabling young children to cycle without ever needing stabilisers.

Places are allocated on a first come, first served basis and cost £5 per child, per session.




The course is aimed at children four years and over and bikes will be provided.

Rachel Vann, physical activity and well-being officer from Malvern Hills District Council, said: “Our courses are a great opportunity for children to develop the skills and confidence needed to learn to ride a bike in a friendly, safe environment, but most importantly, children have good fun in the process.”


To book a place contact Rachel by email at [email protected].
