First Six Pilot Projects Selected to Offer Free Bicycles for School Age Children.

As part of a series of commitments delivered by the Scottish Government within its first 100 days, the new pilots will test their approaches across the next 12 months and will be fully evaluated. They will test delivery models in urban and rural locations, across primary and secondary schools ages and trial various procurement models. The pilots seek to include local bike shops and will explore opportunities to maximise benefits for the local supply chain, including recycling bikes and encouraging a circular economy approach.

The pilots will test a variety of ownership, loan and subscription models and undertake various methods of assessing need to ensure inclusion and accessibility. Pilots are linked to existing community networks across schools, charities, cycling clubs and active travel hubs – all helping to determine what the best models of local delivery could look like.

The Barnett formula doesnt help the ordinary people of Scotland,Jackdaw.It only helps the work-shy unemployables in the central belt of Scotland.If these SNP voters would get up off their a*s*s and not lie about in their beds all day then perhaps Scotland wouldnt need extra funding from England.

Let's just wind up this "discussion". Whenever Scotland is mentioned it's like the night of the long knives, all tripping over yourselves to get a dig in. No wonder Bunter is where he is - total numpties.
but maggie, they were all telling you how much they loved Scotland!

Before the referendum.

Aye right enough jno. And wasn't there a bike scheme in London? Seem to remember Bunter chuntering on about it.
YNNAFYMMI, how many unemployed folk voted for the SNP in this year's election?
All of them.
//All of them.//

That can be arsed to get out of bed!
No-one has any figures then?
The people that need/want free stuff will,
generally speaking,
vote for the one's that are handing it out.
You don't need a degree in PPE to work that one out, corbs.
It's a great idea. Good luck with it after independence.
