Cycling UK continues to support the UK to cycle

This remains true during this difficult period with the ongoing threat of coronavirus Covid-19

Big Bike Revival for Key Workers

Helping key workers unlock the joy of cycling

As the UK battles the ongoing threat of coronavirus, cycling has proven to be vital for many key workers. It’s enabling them to get to work safely whilst maintaining social distancing. That's why Big Bike Revival is helping key workers keep cycling.

What is the Big Bike Revival for Key Workers?

At Cycling UK we want to do our bit to help keep key workers pedalling – or getting them cycling if they don’t have access to a working bike.

Many key workers are using pedal power to commute or deliver essential items.

Going out for a ride is also helping people to look after their mental and physical health.

The Big Bike Revival for Key Workers scheme provides funding and support so that independent bike shops, recycling centres and bike mechanics can offer free services to key workers.

From bike safety checks and repairs to bike loans – this scheme will ensure that our key workers can get from A to B on two wheels.

We aim to reach thousands of key workers in England and Scotland with free cycling services in spring and summer 2020.

Free services available:

Bike safety checks
Bike servicing and repairs
Bike and equipment loans
Dr Bike sessions
Free equipment
