Charlotte's Tandems

Free tandem or tag-along bike to anyone with a disability or additional need.

What we do:

We lend, at no cost (i.e. for free), tandems and tag-alongs to (and only to) people with disabilities or additional needs, who are unable to ride a bike safely on their own, so that they can enjoy the wonders of cycling.

What you need to do:

• Fill in the contact form on our website and Alex will put you in touch with the nearest Volunteeer Helper.
• Arrange with the Helper to collect the tandem or tag-along from them.
• Fill in a borrowers form and hand it to the Helper when you collect the bike.  A large print version is available.
• Have fun riding the bike.  Hire is normally at least two months.
• Send us photos and comments for us to publish on our website and elsewhere.
• Return the bike in a fit state to the Helper at the end of your hire for the next people to ride straight away.

What we don't (and won't) do:

• Lend (or hire) cycles to non-disabled people, even for charity rides.  
• Lend solo trikes
• Provide someone to ride with. 
• Give rides.
