- Volunteers Needed: now � and at the AGM
- Volunteers are vital to everything that happens in Cycling in Wales. Without them there would be no racing, no clubs, few coaches and Welsh Cycling, the organisation, would grind to a halt almost immediately. Welsh Cycling has been working hard over the past few months to update its structure � in particular to create voluntary posts that are better defined and smaller � with more limited and clearly defined responsibilities.
- Welsh Cycling needs to fill two crucial volunteer posts right now. More details can be found HERE.
- Welsh Cycling also needs volunteers to come forward at the AGM in October to sit on the board of Welsh Cycling. More details can be found HERE.
