A bike can be life-changing

After fleeing war and persecution, people seeking asylum in the UK are forbidden from working and forced to live on as little as £9.95 per week. Those who receive refugee status are still doubly hit by the soaring cost of living and the hostile environment.

A bike is a free and sustainable way to access vital services like healthcare, education and legal advice. Beyond this, it is a tool for independence, freedom and community as people begin to rebuild their lives in the UK.

There are hundreds of people on our waiting list to receive a bike, and it continues to grow.

By supporting The Bike Project, you will be helping us to continue our vital work, delivering the benefits of bike ownership to refugees throughout the country.

Thank you for showing solidarity with refugees!
