What We Offered
Run by Frome Community Bike Project, a dynamic and friendly team of trained professionals and volunteers operated the project's bike recycling centre and community cycle hub, united by one aim: to support people to cycle more.
Active travel not only boosts our health but is also kinder to the planet. The project championed the idea that if everyone in Frome replaced just one car journey with a bike ride twice a week, small collective actions could spark significant change - and that vision continues to inspire the work of the Frome Community Bike Project today.
