The walking and cycling charity Sustrans are launching a specific volunteer programme to look after the local off road cycle routes in Canterbury and Whitstable and are looking for local people who would like to contribute to their community by being Community Route Champions.
Do you live in Canterbury or Whitstable? Are you active and enjoy practical stuff?
Our Community Route Champions monitor and maintain the everyday off-road cycling routes that are important for so many essential journeys such as getting to work, to school or the shops.
They make a real difference to everyday cycling and walking in Canterbury and Whitstable.
From clearing overgrown vegetation to cleaning signs and reporting potholes you’ll be doing practical activities to keep these routes usable, learning new skills as well as your existing knowledge and experience.
As part of Sustrans national Volunteer Programme you’ll receive training and support from your local Sustrans team and your fellow Champions.
