This should be happening every where ! So many elders have been put in homes and forgotten. This warms my heart!
Blessed individuals who love and care for ALL. 👏👏🏆
Mary is my great-aunt. Thank you so much for doing this for her and for all of your riders!
Auntie Mary is my great-great aunt! It is amazing to see her smile, reminds me so much of my own great-grandma! Thank you for doing this for her! Xx
This makes me feel so warm and fuzzy inside
God bless this young man what a good hearted man!
Very nice! Bringing new friendships and fresh air to Senior Shut-Ins. WAY TO GO! ♥️
This is so sweet and adorable ! 💖
this is absolutely marvelous, wish this could've started 30 years ago. Wonderful Nevertheelss !
I going start this in my home town... everyone should try something like this even half of what he is doing in Scotland is ok
Many people nowadays are juggling so much they are near to exhaustion. You work full time, take work home, your children have four or five activities a week. Your husband works late. You have homework each night with the kids once you’ve got back which you do whilst you do the evening meal. Weekends your kids have football or swimming and friends over. You do the shopping, cleaning, ironing and cooking around all this. You take both sets of parents out once or twice a week but there... is ... no ... more ... time. You just do your best. You really do.
This is so beautiful, it makes my heart sing
What a nice person
such a wonderful and simple idea :D beautiful
Wonderful news!!
Bless him :')
That's pretty sweet!
Awesome work :)
I love this
I live in British Columbia and would love to buy something like this to do the same thing. Take the elderly for rides along the lake on the rail trial. Anyone know of anything like this available in Canada? Thank you!
Love this
he's a good egg!
I think I'm in love (lol).
What is the music? Anyone know?
So, does he do this for free? As in, like a volunteer? How many others are there doing the same?
Hi, yes Fraser is a volunteer in the charity called Cycling Without Age, which is all about inviting elderly people back into their local community - bringing smiles and happiness. The programme is 5 years old and exists in over 30 countries now. Learn more here: cyclingwithoutage.org/ and join us if you feel like taking an elderly person out for a spin :-)
Ole Kassow thanks!
Ole Kassow so he didn't start the charity? The video suggests this is all his project!
Maddy Gowers Fraser is a wonderful young man, who was part of starting the Scottish chapter last year. If you'd like the full story of how Cycling Without Age started in Copenhagen 5 years ago, there is a TED Talk on RUclips called "Cycling Without Age"
😘😘😘😘😍😍😍💋💋💋💕💕💕
Lack of means to gather .... Maybe you could try videoke, Zumba, maybe you could learn from Japanese people do to their elders
