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.

Thanks so much to Velorim, for making the recycling of tyres possible, and for this acknowledgement.
420kg of tyres saved from landfill - so far!!!
(We can recycle your inner tubes for free, however for tyres there is a small surcharge).
