Barking and Dagenham
We're looking for new group members in Barking and Dagenham!
Do you live in this area? Do you have any spare time to help us develop or be involved in an LCC local group in Barking and Dagenham?
What's involved?
ORGANISE A MEETING: Could you arrange a regular (bi monthly) meeting for local cyclists to get together? This could be in a local pub, café or community centre.
CALL FOR CHANGE: With other local cyclists, could you arrange to speak to, or meet representatives from the local council to discuss problems for cyclists in the area or make suggestions for improvements? We can offer full support with this from the central LCC office.
ORGANISE A RIDE OR EVENT: Are you a budding ride leader? Or do you organise led rides already? Fancy organising a ride on behalf of Barking & Dagenham Cyclists? This could be a short family friendly ride, or a longer trip. We can help to organise ride leader training and promote the event. Or maybe you’re a skilled bike mechanic who could run a workshop to teach others?

Newham Cyclists generally meet on the last Monday of the month, incorporating a short ride in the summer months.

Tower Hamlets
Contact name: Iain Marshall
Meeting times: Second Wednesday of the month, 7.30pm-9.00pm
Tower Hamlets Wheelers is a friendly and sociable group, and we always welcome new people who want to become involved.
In 2017, we became the founder member of the Better Streets for Tower Hamlets coalition, as we realised that many of the issues that we were campaigning on mattered to everyone, not just those who cycle. Through this coalition, we are working constructively with the Council and their consultants to support the ambitious implementation of the Liveable Streets programme, to create safer, healthier and pleasanter neighbourhoods that encourage active travel and improve the quality of life for residents and businesses.
Alongside campaigning work, we also attend many community events with our Dr. Bike and information stands, and we have a free monthly repair workshop for all comers. We also run some sociable leisure rides, mainly in the summer.
