Lewisham Cyclists is the local Borough group of the London Cycling Campaign (LCC). We have more than 700 members representing a broad cross section of cyclists in the Borough.

Our Vision is:

• Our Borough will be a place where people of all ages and abilities can easily make safe and pleasant journeys cycling or walking.

Our aims are:

• In every ward:
  • Low traffic neighbourhoods
  • School streets
  • Secure cycle parking
• Across the Borough:
  • Segregated space for cycling on main roads
  • Safer junctions
  • A network of safe direct walking and cycling routes
• Resulting in:
  • A diverse population of people on bicycles in Lewisham, including more women, ethnic minorities, children, elderly people, and disabled people
  • A greater awareness across all communities of the health and well-being benefits of cycling
  • Enabling more people and goods to move by bicycle in Lewisham, reducing emissions to respond to the Climate Emergency

Our activities and ways of assisting you include:

• Running a wide variety of friendly, social rides in Lewisham and beyond.  Read about some of our past rides here
• Campaigning for safer cycling in Lewisham
• Regular drop-in cycle maintenance workshops
