Are you hoping for a new bike for Christmas and wondering what to do with your old one? Or perhaps you have unwanted bikes left in the garage or shed? Maybe the chain is broken or there are parts missing? If you would like to donate to your bike to help a charity then please come along!

  • Friday 1 December 2023
  • 12pm to 2pm
  • Civic Office, Elstree Way, Borehamwood, WD6 1WA (we will be in the back of the car park next to the recycling bank)

In partnership with Recycle your Cycle we will be hosting this event to collect unwanted bikes which are then taken to HM prisons across the country. Here they are repaired as part of a rehabilitation programme providing jobs whilst in prison and training for future employment upon release. The refurbished bikes are then donated to charities who sell them at a reduced price to raise funds for their organisations.

For more information please visit Recycle your Cycle.

For any questions about the event please email street.scene@hertsmere.gov.uk
