We are now closed to new applications for the Scotland Cycle Repair Scheme 2022-23.

We are hoping to hear about funding for the next scheme year in the coming weeks.

If you are not currently participating in the scheme and would like to be notified when the new scheme goes live, please contact us.

Why is this scheme happening?

Coronavirus and the cost of living crisis mean that it can be difficult for some people to pay for essential bike repairs right now. The scheme is therefore intended to reach people who feel they need financial support, as the costs of bike repairs can be a barrier to cycling.

This service aims to get lots more people across Scotland on their bikes. The Scotland Cycle Repair Scheme is working with bike shops, mechanics and community projects providing cycle repairs across the country, to provide free repairs and maintenance to those who need it. Bike shops and mechanics joining the scheme are awarded grants to provide free repairs and maintenance work, up to the value of £50 per person and £100 per person for non-standard cycles (e.g. trike, tandem, recumbent, cargo. Excluding standard upright e-bikes).

Funding

The scheme is funded by The Scottish Government and is administered by Cycling UK.
