Co-operative Alliance. These principles include voluntary and open membership, democratic control, member economic participation, autonomy and independence, education and training, cooperation among co-operatives, and concern for community.
Pedal Power Experience operates as a co-operative because it aligns with our values of inclusivity, collaboration, and community empowerment. By operating as a co-operative, we ensure that decisions are made collectively, and everyone has a voice in shaping the direction of our organisation.
Through our involvement in the community, we aim to promote health and well-being through cycling. We believe that cycling is not just a means of transportation, but also a way to connect with others, explore the beautiful Northwich area, and improve mental and physical fitness.
With a diverse group of volunteers, we offer a range of services to support cycling enthusiasts of all abilities. Our volunteers lead social rides, repair bikes, and provide maintenance education workshops. Whether you're a seasoned cyclist or just starting out, we welcome your participation and encourage you to get involved.
We rely on the generosity of the community for bike donations. We accept any bike, regardless of its condition, and aim to give it a new lease of life. If a bike cannot be repaired, we salvage its working parts to rebuild another bike. This recycling process ensures that no bike goes to waste and that as many people as possible can access affordable and sustainable transportation options.
By promoting bicycle advocacy, organising rides and social events, and addressing issues of inactivity, Pedal Power Experience strives to create healthier communities. We believe that the social and educational aspects of cycling empower individuals and strengthen communities. As we continue to promote cycling and improve infrastructure, we envision a future where cycling is accessible and enhances the quality of life for all.
If you're passionate about cycling, we invite you to join the ride and become a part of the Pedal Power Experience. Visit our website or get in touch with us for more information on how you can get involved, donate a bike, or participate in our exciting cycling activities. Let's cycle together towards a healthier and more connected Northwich!
