The expertise of coaching is at the heart of cycling performance at every level of the sport and with 100% funding available in many regions of the UK, there really has never been a better time to tap into British Cycling's vast array of available courses.
There are openings in every region in Britain for bursaries or grants to help you either take your first steps into cycling coaching, or develop your skills along the coaching pathway.
Please take a look at the list of options in your area and see if there is funding available to develop your skills as a coach.

1. Contact the Sport Development Officer in your local authority
There are often programmes and initiatives specifically for local communities that provide bursaries for volunteer training.
