What are you trying to achieve?

You may want to gain a reference, get work experience, learn how to fix a bike, improve your English or make connections. Tell us why you want to volunteer with us.

What experience, skills and attitudes will you bring to the team?

Tell us about your bike and non-bike related skills, interests and experiences. For example, do you speak any other languages? No previous experience in bikes is needed!

How do you want to help?

We have many existing volunteer opportunities, and are also open to creating roles for people bringing unique skills to Bike for Good! Our volunteers currently help with: e.g. bike rides, cycle training, fixing and building bikes, van driving, administration, and on the shop floor. But you may have video editing or graphic design skills. Or you may bring unique skills to Bike for Good that we never knew we needed.
