PURPOSE

WE ARE PROUD TO BE A B CORP.
Overnight we became a B Corp. But our journey to certification has been a long and transformational one. It challenged us to become a better business today and think deeply about how we continue to improve and make a meaningful impact tomorrow.
​
We take our time choosing the clients we work with, and deep dive into the suppliers we use. We chose our home based on its sustainability standards and we carry this through everything we do.
We choose to look after our people with a whole-person approach to healthcare and in-turn they choose look after each other.
We are putting lots of smalls measures in place but becoming a B-corp is no small feat. We are now part of a community aiming to drive change and help each other.

XO BIKES
At Bicycle, we believe in leaving the industry better than we found it. That is why we set out to partner with companies that have a real purpose.
​
That’s why teaming up the charity Onwards & Upwards & XO Bikes, has been a no-brainer.
At XO Bikes, ex-offenders learn to repair and recycle bikes through their programme - giving wheels a second chance and getting guys back on road in the process 🚲
It's a genuinely lovely organisation, run by amazing people, that is trying to change a system that's broken.
The impact they have on their community of XO's goes beyond just bikes - it’s about building confidence, providing mental health support, and giving them a much needed job to get themselves back on two feet when they are released.
As XO Founder Stef Jones put it, it's not a bike business, it's a bloke business.
We support XO bikes with their recycle-to-work scheme, giving employees access to a completely refurbished, warranty-holding bike, that is around half the price of its retail equivalent.

We also took part in their mammoth charity bike ride, The Great Release. An Epic one-day prison-to-prison bike ride through Surrey, starting from HMP Wandsworth and finishing at Herne Hill measuring an almighty 125km.
​
We also proudly support them with giving back days. These days are a chance to meet Stef and the XO bike team at their workshop, hear more about some of the team's stories and the great work they do.
