For children and young people who are #Blind or #VisuallyImpaired getting on a bike isn't always straightforward.
But over the summer we've made sure that cycling is accessible. Along with @NewburyVelo, we have enjoyed riding tandems and specially adapted bikes.

Our Wokingham Social Group is a lifeline for many local #Blind and #VisuallyImpaired people.
Last month, we treated everyone to a fish and chip lunch. The hall was filled with the delicious smell of fish and chips, and everyone had a fantastic time.
