Changing lives through cycling

Bike for Good is a cycling charity based in Scotland, focused on the mission to enable people in Scotland to cycle as their mode of transport. Founded in 2010, Bike for Good sell and service refurbished bikes, run maintenance classes, provide cycle training, and deliver community projects; all with a view to change lives for the better through cycling. Bike for Good and welcomes any and all new or existing cyclists to engage with their cycling community hubs. Beneficiaries include bike lovers, curious commuters, those with physical and mental health conditions, young people, refugees and asylum seekers, and those who have never cycled before in their lives. Funding of the organisation comes from the sale of refurbished bikes, and through grants and external funding aimed at tackling environmental, inclusion and health issues. The Bike for Good team is made up of cycling enthusiasts including professional bike mechanics, & a dedicated outreach team to deliver community projects.

Why the community needs us
We benefit the community by teaching them how to cycle and how to fix and maintain their own bikes. We provide low-cost refurbished bikes to make cycling accessible to more people, and all the support necessary for people to confidently ride their bikes around Glasgow and beyond.

Our impact on the community
In the last year alone we have helped 498 people learn how to cycle, diverted 1699 bikes from landfill by refurbishing them, and supported 69 young people to gain a City & Guilds Cycle qualification.
