Children given free cycle courses

Children are being offered free cycling courses over the Easter holidays.

The week-long courses are being run by Reading Borough Council and are available for children aged 10 or over who are able to ride a bicycle.

The councils says the scheme will improve cycle safely by improving "skills, knowledge, attitudes, behaviour and hazard awareness".

The courses are being held at Kensington Road Sports Ground and the Hill Primary School, Peppard Road.
