We provide opportunities for people with physical disabilities to access outdoor recreation.
British Columbia Mobility Opportunities Society (BCMOS) was formed in Vancouver, BC in 1988.
BCMOS makes outdoor recreation accessible to empower and inspire people with physical disabilities to re-imagine what is possible. Being in nature is highly valuable to the quality of life and challenges perceptions of our capabilities. Each summer, we offer guided hikes through the Lower Mainland and adaptive paddling in the heart of Vancouver. The centerpiece of our hiking program is the TrailRider, our own custom access-all-areas wheelchair. With one wheel and “sherpas” back and front, it can tackle any terrain.
BCMOS Summer Programs Are Reopening — With Your Help
Since 1988, the British Columbia Mobility Opportunities Society (BCMOS) has provided inclusive outdoor recreation for people with physical disabilities — offering adaptive hiking, paddling, and cycling programs that build connection, confidence, and joy.
Thanks to the incredible support from our community, BCMOS programs are reopening in June.
- Paddling begins Sunday, June 8
- Cycling begins Tuesday, June 10
- Hiking begins Saturday, June 14
This is a huge step forward — but due to unexpected funding cuts, we’re launching the season with reduced capacity. We’re still working to raise $30,000 to help bring these programs back to full strength.
How Your Support Helps:
- Funds go directly toward qualified guides and instructors
- Supports over 700 outdoor experiences each season
- Keeps nature accessible for people of all abilities
Please consider making a donation or sharing our campaign.
Every dollar helps keep these adventures alive.
