Katherine is Deputy Leader of Hounslow Council and promotes cycling alongside walking and public transport to create a greener, healthier borough for all. As well as building cycle infrastructure, the council supports schemes to help people get cycling, such as free training for children and adults, free repairs from Dr Bike, all-ability cycling, a try before you bike scheme, an e-cargo bike hire scheme and support for local cycling groups. 

“I cycle because it’s often the quickest, cheapest, least polluting, healthiest and most enjoyable way to get around.”
