- Giving people the support and encouragement to get cycling, often for the first time in years and some for the first time ever.
- Working with communities, groups and clubs to enable cycling to develop at grass-roots level.
- Developing new cycling volunteers and supporters, with new skills and great experiences that keep cycling going on long into the future.
