Town of Milton and partners support inclusive cycling for children with disabilities

News release

The Town of Milton recently partnered with ErinoakKids Centre for Treatment and Development and iCan Shine (a non-profit organization) to support inclusive cycling for children with disabilities through the iCan Bike program.

iCan Shine collaborates with local organizations to host five-day camps in their communities. Over 35 children ages 8 and up participated in the program at John Tonelli Sports Centre in Milton. All participants had the chance to reach their goal of independent cycling on a conventional two-wheel bicycle using adapted equipment.
