Cycle Rescue:

@CycleRescue is a Project aiming to reduce the Landfill impact and Carbon Footprint of discarded Bicycles by repairing and reusing unwanted and discarded bicycles instead of reprocessing.Once refurbished and safety checked,our Homeless Community are able to use the finished bikes as a means of increasing their travel range and therefore availability for a broader range of work opportunities. In doing so we also help homeless people to reconnect and re-establish themselves through their own initiative and hard work.
 At the Cycle Rescue Project our aim is to allow homeless people the dignity to take pride in and reap the fruits of their own efforts as a pathway away from marginalisation to the next phase of their lives.We welcome you in joining us on this worthwhile, fun,fulfilling project.


 Recovery Partners: All manner of businesses and organisations and individuals are joining Cycle Rescue as Recovery Partners.Recovery Partners help their community to reduce landfill waste while helping homeless people pursue self driven exit strategies from marginalisation.

Some families are making the choice to leverage their family, sports work school or social contacts to identify ways to assist their contacts in disposing of their unwanted bicycles in a sustainable way, while assisting the homeless and environment.These families will sometimes start reluctantly following the enthusiasm of one family member.WARNING!!The enthusiasm is highly infectious.
