The Bike Project: secondhand bikes, all proceeds to charity

Recommended Posts

The Bike Project is a local charity with a workshop on Crossthwaite Avenue, off Red Post Hill.


They refurbish donated bikes to give to refugees in London. They also teach refugee women how to cycle. Read more here: http://thebikeproject.co.uk/


The very best bikes are refurbished by the best mechanics in the business, usually with plenty of new parts added, and are sold online at their Bike Shop, with all proceeds helping to fund the project.


They are also always looking for old bikes so please bear them in mind - it doesn't matter what condition the bike is in.


Their shop is here: http://shop.thebikeproject.co.uk/


Delivery is free nationwide, but if you wanted to try a bike out first, you could pop into the workshop and take a look. Donated bikes can also be dropped off there.


Any questions PM me - I have been doing some work for them so just declaring my interest!

    • That was very kind of you to take the cat to the vet. Did the car not stop?
    • This is a bit outside our area, but I'm posting in case .... Last night (Sat.20 Dec), around 10.30, we saw a cat hit by a car in St Norbert Road, SE4.  We took him to the out of hours vet in Beckenham, where they confirmed that he had died.  They will see if he is microchipped, and contact the owner if so.  They were very kind.   He was a lovely cat, grey and white.  He must have died very quickly.  So sorry to be the bearer of bad news 😞 The vet is Medivet in Beckenham, tel: 0208 650 2003.
    • Watching my cats over the years with foxes, I've found that foxes have totally ignored them. One exception was when a young fox hadn't seen my cat and found himself eye to eye with my cat at a distance of 1 metre. There was a stand off but the fox blinked first and my cat chased him out of the garden. So proud of her. I believe when foxes have attacked cats, the cat has been vulnerable  - old, young, ill wounded.
    • It's also possible that someone is hand feeding foxes and encouraging them by this to approach others. I have heard of foxes attacking young children (if only anecdotally) but not adults. They do seem to attack cats.
