Story

On Your Bike is a registered charity based at two locations in Taunton. Our aim is to train and support the socially underprivileged, ex-servicemen and long term unemployed by offering them voluntary work placements. Volunteers work in our fully equipped workshops with support and supervision to refurbish unwanted bicycles. Through on the job training volunteers gain employability skills and confidence. Its not just about being a bike mechanic though: we have volunteers who support us with administration, finance and web building tasks. Most of our volunteers gain confidence through serving customers both face to face and on the phone.
