We need funding over summer 2023 to continue to provide bike repair and maintenance sessions in community spaces to change lives through cycling
Preston Pedals needs help from you as someone who can see the value in what we've been doing. We'd like to keep our popular sessions going over the summer 2023, so we continue to help people across Preston to repair their bikes or do up a donated bike, learn new skills, make new friends and grow in confidence on their bikes. We offer expert bike mechanic support during friendly and informative sessions at community venues around Preston. While we are working on our future set up as a cooperative community organisation, we'd like your help to keep operating so Preston keeps growing as a city where everyone benefits from riding a bike! Here's a link to our film we made in 2022 - https://youtu.be/odjBEemVG_A
