Saving Bikes in the UK
Over 18,000 bikes saved from landfill in 2024. Every year, thousands of bikes in the UK go to waste—abandoned, unused, or headed for landfill. Thanks to our amazing donors and collection partners, we rescued 18,260 bikes last year alone. Each one was carefully sorted and prepped by our dedicated volunteers and team, ready for a second life.

Changing Lives in Africa
12,400 bikes sent to Africa to create opportunity In 2024, we shipped 12,400 bikes to our trusted partners across Africa. These bikes are more than just transport—they’re tools for education, healthcare, and economic freedom. From students reaching school on time to farmers accessing markets and nurses visiting patients—your support makes all this possible.
This report offers a behind-the-scenes look at our partnerships, projects, and progress. It’s filled with stories from the communities we serve, highlights from across the year, and insights into how we’re working sustainably for lasting impact.

Sustainability
Every bike we rescue helps reduce environmental impact and creates new opportunities. Whether it’s giving unwanted bikes a new purpose or packing our shipments for maximum efficiency, we’re committed to making a difference—for people and the planet.

Nothing Wasted
Every bike part reused, repurposed, or recycled. Our zero-waste mindset means no bike goes to landfill. We give every component a second life—whether it’s fitted to a refurbished bike or recycled responsibly.

Smarter Shipping
More bikes, less waste. We pack each container with precision—using every inch of space to fit up to 520 bikes, plus spare parts and tools. It’s efficient, cost-effective, and cuts carbon impact.

Skills That Last
Training mechanics for long-term impact. We equip local bike mechanics in Africa with the skills to maintain and repair bikes—keeping them on the road and changing lives for years to come.

From Idle to Impact
Too many bikes in the UK are unused. From outgrown kids’ bikes to forgotten upgrades, thousands sit idle. We turn those unwanted bikes into tools for change—where they’re needed most.
