The volunteer run project based in Lichfield aims to help people become more confident about maintaining and repairing their bikes and provides used bikes on free long term loan for those who otherwise might not be able to afford to buy one. Skill sharing is a way of showing others how to do something so that they can do small repairs and adjustments to their own bikes, hopefully then being able to show their friends and family how to do it too. We receive donations of used bikes and our volunteers work to repair and service them ready for use again. We try to find the right home for the right bike. If you would like to volunteer your time, are looking for a bike or want to donate something to the project please get in touch.
You can find them on Facebook here
