#EverydayHeroes - Help us get more people on bikes
Edinburgh, United Kingdom
Aim
Get more people on bikes — for their health, their minds, and the planet. Join our #EverydayHeroes and make change happen!
At The Bike Station, we believe every person who rides a bike is an everyday hero — for themselves, their community, and the planet.
We’ve been a cornerstone of Scotland’s charity sector for over 20 years, helping people discover the freedom, joy, and connection that cycling brings. From children learning to ride for the first time, to families finding affordable bikes, to communities building confidence on two wheels — we’re here to make cycling accessible for everyone.
What makes us different? Every bike we sell helps fund our community work. We refurbish pre-loved bikes, giving them a new lease of life and helping people access affordable, sustainable transport. Every purchase and every donation supports projects that empower children, young people, and families — creating real, lasting change in our communities.
How Your Money Helps People
Your support helps us remove the barriers that stop people from cycling.
You’re helping a parent get to work without the cost of a car. You’re helping a child experience the joy of their first bike. You’re helping communities become healthier, more connected, and kinder to the planet.
Every donation keeps our workshops open, our mechanics trained, and our projects rolling — making cycling something everyone can access and enjoy.
