The World Tricycle Union has been established an association of organisations and individuals whose interest is in developing, promoting and stimulating the use of tricycles world-wide for sporting, leisure and domestic activities. As well as aiming to encourage tricycling for the able-bodied, the WTU has a special interest in the use of tricycles for people with disabilities, for rehabilitation, mobility and sport.

The WTU is an international association, open to all interested groups and individuals. It is a non-profit making association and will have no links with any government or political organisation. The WTU will not organise races or events, and will not intervene in the administration or operation of other national or local associations and organisations unless invited to do so. The WTU will fully respect the integrity and independence of all other associations and organisations.

The World Tricycle Union has developed from an association of the Tricycle Association (UK) and 3wielweb (BEL). Individuals outside these two organisations are invited to become members of the WTU, through application to the WTU Committee. For the first year (2009 -10), as a provisional arrangement, the WTU Committee will consist of two secretaries:

Roger Alma (UK) (Rogeralma21@aol.com)
André Van Bosbeke (BEL) (info@3wielweb.be)
