Bikes for Schools has already managed to provide the first batch of bikes out to local families in need and now they need your help to expand and continue to reach their goals as they get bigger and more ambitious.

This is where I come in. I'm running a marathon, god help me. Don't know how I managed to get myself in this situation given my erm, lackluster, attendance at school sport. But hey ho, it's happening. In the middle of two weeks of freshers.

Volunteering for BfS gave me something positive to do for my local community during the lockdowns and seeing the progress that has been made over the past year has been really satisfying. I'm not one of those running evangelists where they claim all your problems will be solved if you force yourself out of bed at 5.30am every day to do a 5K but running has been something small that has been beneficial this past year

Any sponsorships for the marathon is massively appreciated as BfS are hoping to introduce Community Bike Workshops + Clubs, any money raised from this page will go towards this expansion
