Leeds Bike Mill is a community bike recycling and training co-op, established in 2014. It was born out of discussions about the need for a bicycle recycling project in the Leeds area and the need for affordable second-hand bikes. Most other major cities run a similar recycling scheme.
We are not-for-profit and provide affordable, fully serviced bicycles to people in the community and deliver a range of training courses in bike maintenance.
We service bikes that have been discarded or donated; diverting them from landfill and saving energy and resources. We want to provide people with affordable transport, as well as the opportunity to improve physical and emotional health and well being through regular cycling.
Leeds Bike Mill is run by three co-op members and made possible by a wider team of mechanics. We have many years experience in both bicycle recycling and teaching, and particularly enjoy passing on the empowering skills of bike maintenance to people who ride bikes through our courses and volunteer opportunities.
We are based in the same building as another great organisation, the Pedallers’ Arms, a bike workshop open to the public three evenings a week, where you can repair your bicycle with help, if needed, from the volunteer mechanics.
If you are interested in donating a bicycle or parts then please see our Donate page.

Hi,
I have just joined the wait list for one of your cycle maintenance courses. It is very good of you to offer these as free. Was thinking I have a nice Raleigh bike in the garage which was my daughter’s and would suit a child of about 10-12, I would think. It’s in decent condition, but would need a bit of a service. I would like to donate it if it’s something you could sell on. I can send a picture of it if you need me to, if you can send me an email address to send it to.
Best Wishes,
Sally
Hi Sally, that’s very kind of you and we would happily accept the donation. No need to send us a photo. You can book a time to drop off the donation at https://calendly.com/leedsbikemill/donation-drop-off?month=2022-01 Thanks!
