• Founder

  • Aug 2021 - Present

  After years of attempting to get to football matches on my bike, I decided that something had to be done. As football became more aware of the climate crisis, research started to show how big an impact spectator travel was having on a clubs carbon footprint. As an experienced community worker, I also considered the impact on the local community to football grounds. And saw a huge problem of living urban spaces becoming polluted and dangerous car parks on matchdays. I decided to set up Pedal to the Pitch. Pedal to the Pitch encourages fans to find cleaner, greener and more enjoyable ways to get to football matches. We lead rides and walks, conduct fan research and educate fan bases. So far we have led one ride from Liverpool Street to Tottenham Hotspur Stadium and have a series of events being planned for the Spring. I am responsible for all elements of Pedal to the Pitch, including managing events, applying for funding, building our network and relationships and ensuring we stay committed to our community led principles.
