Sir Sir Chris Hoy has announced his support for UNICEF initiative Wheels For Change, which encourages 100,000 cyclists to take to their bikes on May 24 as seven 100km cycling events take place from multiple Barclays Premier League sites.

Funds raised will support the Barclays and UNICEF Building Young Futures partnership which provides disadvantaged young people with the skills they need to find employment. Hoy commented 'As a UNICEF UK Ambassador, I'm proud to support Wheels For Change. Cycling transformed my life and now through this fundraising event we have the chance to help transform the lives of disadvantaged young people across the world, to turn their business dreams into a reality'.
