Signing up to ‘Get on your bike for FRAME’ virtual cycling challenge which provides a great opportunity for members of the public to take on a new challenge and get fit, all whilst raising vital funds for vulnerable adults.

Participants at FRAME need your support now more than ever
Like many charities, Pembrokeshire FRAME has been negatively impacted by the COVID-19 crisis. As a training and reuse charity the pandemic disrupted many of our workshops and retail activities, causing income generation to drop.
Paul Hughes Chief Operating Officer at Pembrokeshire FRAME said: “For anyone wanting to take part, not only is it a great opportunity to tick off a personal fitness goal, but whilst doing so, you will also be making a difference to the lives of participants at Pembrokeshire FRAME. Lockdown has taken its toll on individuals with learning disabilities and mental health issues. FRAME is all about supporting individuals helping to increase confidence and self-esteem. Covid prevented participants from coming to our site, meaning they couldn’t come in and see their friends and colleagues or do any of their training and work experience. As government guidelines ease we are now experiencing increased demand for our support and we are looking to develop the range of support that we can offer. By registering to take part in ‘Get on your bike for FRAME’, you really will be helping FRAME support our most vulnerable participants during a time they need it more than ever.”
