When communities work together, great things happen.

A bike can open doors to employment, education, better health, and greater independence. By working together, we can help more people experience the benefits of cycling.

Our mission isn’t simply to recycle bikes. It’s to remove barriers and create opportunities.

This project is delivered in partnership with SHIFTA and Re-Cycle York. By combining Recycle York’s expertise in bike reuse with SHIFTA’s growing network of verified sellers, independent bike shops, and cycling businesses, we’re able to reach more communities and create a greater impact. Together, we’re helping quality bikes find new homes, supporting good causes, promoting affordable transport, and making cycling accessible to more people across the UK.

If you’re a charity, community organisation, school, support service, non-profit group or independent business that believes bikes could benefit the people you support, we’d love to hear from you.

Complete our simple application form and tell us more about your organisation, who you support, and how the bikes will be used.
