Gosia Polanska

Founder and ride leader for Manley Park Bike Train

Gosia was nominated for her work in setting up a bike train to help pupils at Manley Park Primary School cycle safely to school. She is passionate about getting more families cycling for everyday journeys. She worked tirelessly with other parents to help set up the Manley Park Bike Train which sees more than 50 children regularly cycle to school.

“Thanks to parents, ride leaders and the school street, we ride to school together every Friday. Manley Park Bike Train normalises riding a bike for all ages on the streets of Manchester, inspiring young families and our neighbours to rethink our mobility and reimagine our futures.”
