Funding for Trikes

Help Us Get More Wheels Rolling: Support Trikes for All Abilities

At Ride Your Trike NZ, we believe that everyone deserves the freedom to ride. For people living with disabilities or mobility challenges, a trike isn’t just a bike—it’s a life-changing tool for independence, fitness, and connection.

But specialized adaptive trikes can be expensive. Many families and individuals need support to access one—and that’s where funding can make all the difference.

Ride Your Trike NZ is not affiliated with these funders, and we are not responsible for the outcome of any applications.

Each organisation has its own criteria and funding cycles—please read their guidelines carefully.

Want to Support the Cause?

Together, we can create a more inclusive Aotearoa—one trike at a time.
