Margaret Carey Foundation (trading as UpCycle)
Upcycle believe everyone deserves a chance at a better future. We work to prevent people from being pulled into crime and help those already in the system find paths out. We run bike maintenance programmes for at-risk and marginalised youth in Bradford and in prisons and young offender institutions across the UK. Our trainees learn skills, gain valuable experience, and build the resilience and self-belief needed to succeed. Most refurbished bikes, often saved from landfills, are donated to those in need, both locally and globally. The remainder are sold in our Community Bike Shop in Shipley, providing affordable and good quality bikes to the local community and funding our work.
