CTC is granted charitable status

The Charity Commission for England and Wales has approved CTC’s application to become a charity.

Chair of CTC Council, David Cox said: “I’m delighted to announce that the Charity Commission has approved CTC as a registered charity. CTC is an authority on cycling matters and a vibrant grassroots organisation. Founded in 1878, our organisation has a proud record of encouraging and supporting cyclists and cycling, and as a charity CTC is in a stronger position to do what we do even better.”

CTC’s CEO Gordon Seabright said: “This is exciting news – CTC has a hugely important role to play as the champion for cycling and cyclists in the UK and the move to become a registered charity is a key milestone in strengthening that.”
