What is it? Schools sign up online at www.bikes4school.co.uk to receive a unique code. If this code is entered when buying cycling goods via the bikes4school website, five per cent of the sale cost is donated to the school. Customers also get a discount on bikes and cycling gear purchased on the website.

How much is on offer? There is no limit to what is given, but it depends on how many people enter each school's code. There is no cost or additional workload involved for the individual schools but head teachers can log on to see a full record of purchases. Schools receive the five per cent donations through quarterly payments.

What will it fund? Schools are encouraged to reinvest their income in projects that encourage pupils to become more active and healthy, or to improve cycle parking and storage facilities around the school. However, there are no conditions attached to the financial payments received.
