University staff and instructors will be available to give advice on lighting, hi-visibility clothing and cycling in the damp and dark. Staff and students attending will be able to collect hi-visibility equipment and free lights provided by the University, Nottinghamshire Police and members of the Sustainable Travel Collective ( and RideWise).
