Rie Cushley and her family love Strathclyde Park which they say “feels like home”, and where son Darren uses the accessible bikes available to hire from the watersports centre. Shona tells of how much Zac, who has autism, enjoys the cycling pump track which opened last year at the Bellshill side of the park and has been using at least twice per week throughout the school holidays.
Boccia champion Steph calls Chatelherault “the most beautiful park in South Lanarkshire” and told the exhibition how he gets ready for competition by walking its trails with fiancee and coach Michaela and discussing tactics, preparation and match plans.
