Up-Cycled U CIC
Empowering communities – one bicycle at a time
By refurbishing and donating bikes, we enable individuals the freedom to travel, connect, and access new opportunities.
About Us
As a green initiative, we save bikes from landfill, creating a positive impact on both people and the planet, while fostering supportive communities united by their shared love for cycling.
Here’s how you can get involved
Up-Cycled U CIC is a community-driven initiative dedicated to taking in donated bikes, refurbishing them to be safe and fit for purpose, and then donating them to local refugees and low-income individuals in Cannock & South Staffordshire.
