Yesterday we proudly hosted Cornwall’s very first Bikeability Conference, bringing together 30 instructors from across the county for a fantastic day packed with professional development, networking, practical workshops and the latest updates from Bikeability🚴‍♂️

An opportunity to share experiences, learn from one another and celebrate the progress and impact of the programme in Cornwall, particularly over the last three years, and also the vital role instructors play in helping children develop the skills and confidence they need to cycle safely.

A huge thank you to everyone for joining us and engaging so brilliantly 🚲

The response to our Physical Activity Clinical Champion (PACC) training for local health and care professionals has been incredible so, together with Active Devon, we’ve arranged a new series of free on-line ‘lunch & learn’ sessions for 2026/27. This includes some focused on mental health, obesity and children and young people, and continues our commitment to helping healthcare professionals embed physical activity into everyday clinical practice.

The training is designed to increase confidence and capability among health and care professionals, enabling meaningful conversations with patients about movement and its role in improving physical and mental wellbeing. Sessions will explore current physical activity guidelines, the evidence behind movement as a preventative and therapeutic intervention, and practical ways to support patients to become more active.
