Cllr Fox said: “I believe that every child should have the opportunity to own and ride a bike.

"I also wanted to help support local businesses who have been financially impacted during the pandemic.”

The cost of living crisis in which energy bills, house prices and fuel have continued to rise is having a major impact on families in the UK. 

A recent survey by comparethemarket.com showed that over 42% of families with children living at home regularly feel stressed about their finances.
