Islington council has contracted staff from Satellite, the green agency to help more people in the borough to walk and cycle.
The staff have been busy in the Islington wards of Canonbury, St. Mary’s and St. Peter’s asking what the council can do to support pedestrians and cyclists. We found that 45% of you are keen to give walking and cycling a go, and that 65% of you would like to exercise more.
In response to the survey we have launched a free Dr-Bike service for residents. It takes place every second Saturday outside the Duke of Cambridge pub on St Peters Street.
We have also hired a fitness instructor to get you in shape for summer. These free lessons take place within the streets and parks of Islington with lessons for all fitness abilities. Our trained instructor takes groups every second Wednesday from 6.20pm outside the Duke of Cambridge pub on St Peters Street. To book your place or find out more call 020 7608 5203.
