This programme is 70% jointly subsidised by Wicklow Sports & Recreation Partnership, Healthy Ireland and Cycling Ireland which results in the cost to the participant of €30. The ratio of 6-8 participants to 2 Cycle Right trained tutors results in an individualised programme but also requires the input of Parents to enable the success of the child.
If due to bad weather, one of the days activity cannot go ahead, we will try to add another day to the end of the programme. However as the overall cost to run the programme is €100 per participant and the tutors may not be available, as they are scheduled to run the next 5 or 6 week programme in a different location in County Wicklow, NO REFUND will be given. We therefore guarantee 4 of the 5 weeks or pro-rata refund if less than 4 sessions are delivered.
