Waltham Forest Cycling Campaign

Volunteer with WFCC!

Do you want to make Waltham Forest an even better place for cycling? Waltham Forest Cycling Campaign is relaunching and we're holding a meeting for anyone interested in getting involved.

Local campaigners will be hosting an AGM to reinvigorate the local chapter of the LCC and are inviting any and all interested (no need to be an LCC member) to a friendly pre-meet at Ye Olde Rose and Crown at 7:30pm, 1 September.

Opportunities available to volunteer in all areas (e.g. campaigning, ride leading, comms, stakeholder engagement) and to add your voice and perspective to cycling improvements in the borough. A member of LCC staff will be coming along to answer any questions you might have about how LCC local groups work.
