The Velorution Initiative.
We are launching an exciting initiative which:
- will save you money when you buy a new bike,
- will mobilise Londoners to improve cycling conditions,
- will give you the opportunity to use your skills and channel your frustration with present conditions into making something constructive.
Here is how it works:
- You decide to buy a new bicycle at our shop,
- Velorution offers you a ten percent discount on the bike, if you commit to a number of hours of voluntary work for a cause, which you can select from a portfolio we have prepared,
- you choose the project; we will forward your details to the project manager; it is expected you volunteer a minimum of one hour per £10 discount received,
- London will be a better place to live, thanks to your contribution.
.
To start off the initiative we have teamed up with Sustrans and the London Cycling Campaign. Both organisations have a “Champions Programme”. See below details of Sustrans’ “Active Travel Champion” programme. The LCC has a “Go Dutch” Champion Programme.
We welcome proposals by other organisations or individuals of other projects and activities that will benefit from the eclectic and high-level skillset of our customer base.
