From 6th to 12th June we are encouraging residents to walk, jog, run, scoot, cycle, skateboard (or you could even skip!) for local journeys.
Throughout the week we have a number of activities / events to promote active travel.
Photo competition:
Send us a photo of you or your family travelling active on the Great Park – you could be on the walk to work, scooting the school run or out for an evening bike ride. Send a snap to ngpwebsite@newcastlegreatpark.com and we’ll enter you into a competition to win a £50 Amazon voucher.
Family Bike Ride:
On Tuesday 7th June, we’re holding a family bike ride, departing the Community Centre at 5.30pm. Enjoy a leisurely evening ride around the local area. To find out more and book your place, click here.
Free bike servicing:
On Saturday 11th June we are running another Dr Bike event, offering residents a free service for their bike, by qualified Halfords mechanics. There are two sessions being held in the Community Centre car park; one in the morning and another in the afternoon. Find out more and book your place here.
Have a go on an e-bike:
Also on Saturday 11th June, residents will have the chance to have a go on an e-bike – borrow one from the Halfords stand in the Community Centre car park and enjoy a ride around the Great Park. If you’ve not ridden one before, its a great opportunity to give it a go! Make sure you book a slot here to avoid disappointment.

We’ve got lots of active travel offers exclusively for residents, including with Halfords, Cotswold Outdoor, Snow & Rock and more! Click here to find out more and request your discount voucher.
