“I love the feeling of freedom”

-

“When I’m on my trike, I’m happy,” Jenny Turner says.

She has had mobility problems since her leg was badly injured in an accident.

“Whether I’m at a Wheels for Wellbeing session at the local velodrome or cycling with this amazing organisati­on in the park, I love the feeling of freedom cycling gives me.

“When I attended my first Wheels for

Wellbeing cycling session in June, one lap of the velodrome left me puffed out. Now, I can do ten laps! I also enjoy cycling in the park, which is a great way to spend time surrounded by nature.

“Thanks to cycling regularly, my leg and stomach muscles are stronger, I’ve more stamina, I’m more confident – and my mood has improved so much, I no longer have to take antidepres­sants.

“Cycling has made a world of difference to my life.”
