Hello, we’re Life Cycle
We work with people of all ages, abilities and backgrounds at every stage of their cycling journey: From learning to ride, to building a career in the cycle industry.
We know that with the right support, anyone can benefit from bikes. We help thousands of people each year by providing:
Bikes that are safe, smooth and fun to ride.
Cycle training for all ages and abilities.
Cycling activities for people with additional needs.
Industry-accredited training for the public – and people in prison.
We’re looking for volunteers to contribute to our Bikes Beyond Bars project, supporting men in our prison-based workshops in HMP Fosse Way.
As a volunteer, you’ll work alongside course participants, helping them refurbish a wide range of donated bikes. You’ll help them develop cycle maintenance skills and work towards earning a professional qualification. These new skills will equip them for better job opportunities upon release.
You’ll collaborate with our dedicated Prison Bike Mechanic Tutors, providing hands-on assistance in the workshop and making a meaningful impact on the participants’ journey toward rehabilitation.
This is a great opportunity for those who enjoy working with people from all walks of life and want to use their bike know-how to help make a real difference in their community.
