"Thank you all very much for another year of most enjoyable Companion Cycling. Thank you also to the volunteers who so patiently and kindly helped Charlotte and her friends from Woodlands School who came in October to celebrate Charlotte's sixteenth birthday. They had a super day."
Carolyn, Dec. 2007

"I cannot speak highly enough about the Companion Cycling scheme. We've been members since the scheme began in 1996, and have enjoyed some really great cycling through both the summer and winter months. As our teenage son has highly challenging behaviour, we're extremely limited in where we can go, and Companion Cycling has provided us with the ideal family activity. Our son literally bursts with excitement when he sees "his" familiar bike - I only hope the scheme never has to stop. Huge praise must also go to the great team of volunteers who run the scheme with incredible friendship and efficiency .. long may it continue."

"I have been unable to drive a car or ride a bike since my brain haemorrhage left me with partial sight and severe weakness of the left side of my body. I was so excited to discover Companion Cycling. Over the last 18 months various volunteers have helped me to rediscover the joys of cycling and benefit from their cheerful company. I never knew that Bushy Park was such a diverse park, and I have been able to visit much more of it on cycle than I ever would on foot. In the process I have become physically stronger and my confidence has increased."

"I like to be out and about and for the last few months I've been going cycling in Bushy Park every Friday morning. I go with a few people from the JM Centre with Angie and Ruth. We leave at about 10.30 and have a bit of a picnic before we cycle. It's really nice. They have lots of different bikes to suit everybody, even an electric one, but I like to sit in the yellow one because then I can go fastest. I like it best when one of the men helpers goes with me so then we can go really quickly.
I do like to slow down sometimes and let the others catch up and then I can look at the deer and the horses in the big fields. There are lots of birds and big, big trees. I don't get tired but I do sometimes get a bit hot. I don't mind because the exercise is good for me."
