Good Wheel - The Huddle Program

In June and August 2014 we ran two rounds of the good Wheel program at The Huddle, North Melbourne Football Club's Learning and Life Centre. 

The program was targeted at the young men and women who use the centre, and who would benefit from the mobility a bike, and the skills to ride it locally would bring.

We worked closely with the Huddle team , the Victoria Police and of course our project partners Good Cycles. 

24 participants are now equipped with new bicycles and the skills to ride them safely in their local areas.
