Women On Wheels SCIO

Women on Wheels (SCIO) is a Glasgow based community cycling hub for women, girls and non-binary people. A service designed and led by women, we deliver a range of cycling activities to get women, girls and non-binary people back on a bike or onto a bike for the very first time. 

Our mission is to empower and enable women, girls and non-binary people to overcome their barriers to take up cycling - for transport, to improve their physical and mental health, and most importantly, for the pure joy of it!

As we are a small charity and pay for staff to deliver sessions, a cancellation with less than 24 hours notice still occurs a cost to us. If you cannot attend a booked session please cancel or rearrange or contact 07927357140 (Please tick to acknowledge)
