Spring is in full swing, and for many families, it’s the season to get outdoors and active. But for children with disabilities or additional needs, accessing the joy of cycling isn’t always straightforward.

At Bikeworks, we believe every child should experience the fun and freedom that cycling brings – no matter their needs or ability.

We know that finding the right cycle for a disabled child can feel overwhelming, which is why we’re here to offer support, expert advice, and a safe, welcoming space to explore what works best for your child. Whether you’re starting out, moving on from a school loan scheme, or just unsure where to begin, we’ll guide you every step of the way.

Why Families Choose Bikeworks

✅ Personalised advice

Our friendly and experienced team understands the varied needs of children with physical disabilities, sensory processing differences, and learning disabilities. We take time to explore options that suit your child’s goals, preferences, and comfort.

✅ Try before you buy

Our East London site at Queen Elizabeth Olympic Park includes a traffic-free environment and a wide selection of specialist cycles. Families can test ride in a relaxed, welcoming space.

✅ Ongoing support

We don’t disappear after a sale. We’re here with aftercare, servicing, and upgrade advice as your child grows or their needs change.

✅ Funding guidance

Specialist cycles can be a significant investment. We’ll help you navigate potential funding routes, including charitable grants, school and local authority schemes.

“The team at Bikeworks made everything feel easy. We got honest, practical advice that was tailored to our daughter’s needs and what we wanted to do together as a family. For us, it was about being able to share experiences—and having the right cycle has made that possible. We’re so pleased.”
