World Bicycle Relief UK

World Bicycle Relief mobilises communities in rural regions around the world to thrive with life-changing bicycles.

Over 3.1 billion people in rural regions around the world live in communities far from the nearest paved road, often walking miles each day to access essential services. For many, distance is a significant barrier to education, healthcare, markets, and other vital opportunities.

World Bicycle Relief partners with communities to deliver specially designed, locally assembled, rugged bicycles to people in need. Through an efficient, innovative, and scalable model, the organisation empowers students, health workers, and entrepreneurs with life-changing mobility. At the heart of this work is the purpose-designed Buffalo Bicycle.

World Bicycle Relief’s goal is to provide bicycles as a sustainable mobility solution for people in rural and underserved areas. Durable and thoughtfully designed, and supported by a network of trained mechanics and affordable spare parts, the Buffalo Bicycle enables individuals and communities to access education, healthcare, markets, and essential services needed to thrive.
