Learn to Cycle – Building Confidence, One Ride at a Time!

What an amazing session we had at our recent Learn to Cycle event! It was inspiring to see participants support one another, build confidence, and take important steps towards gaining a life skill that opens up new opportunities for health, independence, and mobility.

From first-time riders to those rediscovering their balance, the atmosphere was full of encouragement, determination, and progress. A special shout-out to everyone who took part—you made it truly special!

This week is

Knife Crime Awareness Week 2026 is a powerful moment for communities to unite and take a stand for the safety of our young people. It highlights the ongoing efforts of individuals, charities, and organisations working tirelessly to prevent knife crime and protect lives. Join the movement from 18th – 24th May 2026.

At SpringAid International Development UK, we are standing with communities across Leeds to raise awareness about the devastating impact of knife crime—and more importantly, to promote solutions that save lives.

Knife crime is not just a statistic. It’s affecting real people, real families, and real futures.

Too many young people feel pressure, fear, or lack of opportunity—but carrying a knife is never the answer. It only increases the risk of harm, to yourself and to others.

We believe in:

🔹 Prevention through education
🔹 Empowering young people with positive alternatives
🔹 Supporting families and communities
🔹 Working together for lasting change

This week, we are bringing together voices from across Leeds—community leaders, youth workers, faith groups, and law enforcement—to send one united message:

Bin the knife. Save a life.

Let’s stand together. Let’s protect our young people. Let’s build safer communities.

Building Confidence, One Ride at a Time!

Another fantastic Learn to Ride session delivered at the “Let’s Move SouthLeeds Event”, and what an inspiring experience it was!

Participants came in with different levels of confidence, but all left having made real progress—whether it was finding their balance, pedalling independently, or simply feeling more comfortable on a bike. The determination and support shown throughout the session created such a positive and uplifting atmosphere.

These sessions are all about breaking barriers, building confidence, and showing that it’s never too late to learn something new.
