If like most schools you don’t have a cycle shelter, and due to the budget cuts your worried about being able to afford one, at canopies by Acer we have a cycle shelter to suit everyone’s budget. To help you with the process of purchasing a cycle shelter we have put together a few benefits on why to invest in a cycle shelter for your school.

Schools are gradually becoming more environmentally friendly and are trying to reduce their carbon foot print, but recent statistics showed that a mere 2% of pupils currently cycle to school, this statistic is far too low and needs to be improved drastically. Investing in a cycle shelter would be a positive step in the right direction for pupils, and would encourage them to cycle to school each day and be less reliant on public transport and parents.

Having your pupil’s cycle to school each day will also bring increased health benefits to pupils and parents if they are cycling to school and back each day with their child. Another benefit you will notice is less traffic outside the school during the mornings and afternoons, meaning less congestion on the roads.

Cycle shelters provide a safe and secure place for bikes to be stored during school hours, keeping them safe from theft and vandalism and also ensuring the bike remains dry during wet weather. Our expert sales team are always happy to help with any query you might have – 0844 335 0323.
