My story

Thanks for taking the time to visit my JustGiving page.

As part of the O2 Think Big scheme I was itroduced to 4 young lads who started Gear-up. Gear up is part of a family of social enterprises being developed by Worth Unlimited – a national youth work charity and social enterprise engaging with disadvantaged and marginalised young people at risk of social exclusion. Based in some of the most deprived areas in England, Worth Unlimited has 14 years experience of working with young people excluded from society.

Gear-up bike social enterprise has been developed by four young people As a bike social enterprise we will be offering the following:

Gear-up bike club: a bike club offering members access to weekly bike rides, holiday trips, tips and advice

Gear-up bike repair workshops: weekly sessions where anyone can come along and learn about bike repairs and maintenance from our trained staff

Gear-up bike shop: offering parts, maintenance, bikes for sale and all things bike related

Gear-up coaching: offering cycling proficiency courses, bike safety and off-road skills

Gear-up upcycle: taking old bikes and upcycling them for resale, including the production of specialist bikes and build a bike days

The aim of Gear Up is to run as a community friendly cycle business encouraging healthier lifestyles and creating job opportunities for unemployed or NEET young people.
