Today we’re celebrating the amazing achievement of Mun-phye who raised a whopping £300 for Bren Bikes (The Bren Project) by cycling 5km around Jubilee Park! Thanks so much to everyone who sponsored him and if you’d like to donate please visit

Our pleasure!

When I was Sheriff of Chester, it was a pleasure to join the Chester Critical Mass cycle ride one afternoon around the city and gain an insight into some of the challenges faced by cyclists locally. These challenges - particularly very poor road surfaces - are very much felt in my own ward too.

When my term of office concluded, I committed to once again becoming a bike owner and on Friday last week I duly went along to Bren Bikes in Chester - a brilliant place - to get kitted out. Being a lover of bright colours, I chose the orange one (inevitably) which I look forward to getting good use out of...and being easy to spot as I wobble around locally.

Thanks to the Chester Cycling Campaign for encouraging me to get back on a bike!

A sneak peak inside Bren Bikes (if you’ve not already been!) This lovely bike gets a health check including a change of cables.
Steve supports our beneficiary through the job. Now he’s in week 7 of 8 we’re so proud of how much he can do with little assistance from the boss! Nice one.

We were kindly donated this virtually new premium E-Bike and we’re looking for its new owner!

Watch the video to see me take it out for a quick test ride around Bren Bikes.

Sometimes you just need a little push to try something in your neighbourhood!

Have you been to Bren Bikes?
Under The Bren Project, we help people with autism and learning disabilities get into the world of work by offering supported work placements.

Our beneficiaries help to service bikes, fix punctures and service donated bikes to sell on at great prices.

The latest bike maintenance session is now live, if you wish to book onto the course.

Details are below!

This short course will give you the opportunity to better understand your bicycle and to learn how to deal with problems such as punctures and under-performing brakes. We will also discuss chain maintenance and how to be both comfortable and efficient on the bike.

Its National volunteer week this week, so here’s a quick post to remind everyone how lucky we are, to have such an amazing and talented team of volunteers with us at Bren Bikes.

We have a team of 14 volunteers, from all walks of life. Some are ex beneficiaries, scientists, skilled technicians, social work backgrounds, accountants…..
All bring their own unique and amazing set of skills to us at Bren bikes.

In total, they have accumulated almost 30,000 hours of volunteering, since the workshop first opened.
With some of those original volunteers, still working with us today.

Here’s a few memories and pics of the team.

From us all at the Bren project, thankyou so so much.
