Greener Greenhill has held four free ‘Bike MOT’ events outside their local community library.

Local people competent in bike repair have volunteered their time to give bikes a once over, make minor adjustments or repairs on the spot and advise on whether a bike is worth taking to a bike shop for more substantial work. Approximately 15 bikes benefited from this service each time and the owners were really pleased to be ‘back on the road’.

Greener Greenhill has also held an ‘e-bike trial’ session for people potentially interested in buying an electric bike. Local people who already own e-bikes volunteered to let others have a go on them in a cul-de-sac they had leafletted in advance to alert residents to what would be happening.
