Period Products

Following the Scottish Government’s introduction of free period products for all in 2022, event organisers aim to tackle period poverty and remove stigma at the 2023 UCI Cycling World Championships. Every Championship venue will have a selection of period products available free-of-charge (subject to availability), and these will be available at venue Information Points for anyone who needs them.

Sensory Bags

Sensory bags will be available for children and adults who may find the Championships environment overwhelming. The bags, which are available at all Championship venues, contain tools to help support various sensory needs including sunglasses, fidget toys, and ear plugs. Sensory bags and ear defenders will be available at venue Information Points, subject to availability.
