The Women in Sport Initiative was launched by the Irish
Sports Council in 2005 to increase participation of women in sport. The
objectives of the Women in Sport programme were to raise the overall physical
activity levels among women and to support women's roles within sports
organisations.
Cycling Ireland has received funding to support activity that supports the aims of the Women In Sport initiative. If you are a coach, club or other group that are interested in running courses, taster sessions, workshops, accessible led rides, cycling challenges or other initiatives to encourage more females to take up cycling then get in touch.
Funding is ideally to support those not already involved in cycling and is based on group sizes of 8 or more.
Funding is limited and is on a first come first served basis
