Cycling Without Age - Seaford Chapter

Cycling Without Age – Seaford Chapter is a group of local volunteers and “pilots”, led by Pete Tattam. They are dedicated to taking anyone from the local community who is suffering from some form of isolation out on ‘trishaw’ cycle rides to feel the wind in their hair. Our aim is to bring generations closer together using special trishaws (three-wheel cycles with a passenger cab out front). They will have electrical power assist, so no need to be super-sporty to be a volunteer cycle pilot. Our rides will be comfortable, fun and free. Our project aims to enable people to experience the town and nature close-up from the bicycle. We will provide opportunities for our elders to regain social connection and for people to tell their story in the environment where they have lived their lives. Our work is intended to build bridges between generations and reinforce trust, respect and the social glue of our society. Our cycle pilots and passengers alike will enjoy the physical and emotional well-being benefits. The joy of riding in the trishaw cab will stimulate spirits to fly and stories to flow!
