Our story
Cycle Saviours is an exciting social enterprise that loves saving, refurbishing, repairing, servicing and selling bikes, making cycling accessible to all and encouraging everyone to get on their bikes and explore Milton Keynes' cycle networks and trails whilst helping the environment at the same time.
Cycle Saviours:
repairs, recycles and sells donated or abandoned bikes;
provides a good quality service repairing and servicing bikes in our workshop;
runs cycle maintenance workshops as a 'pop-up' service at community events and employers' premises; and
recycles unusable bike parts and creates fun and innovative products including table lamps and planters.
Our advice
In establishing this enterprise we spent time visiting similar projects and refining the approach that fitted best with our location.
We worked with local Statutory agencies, connecting with their agenda around promoting cycling.
