The students enjoyed the programme were engaged every time they attended the bike building lesson. They were confident to ask Matt questions and followed instructions that were professionally organised and clear. I would recommend this programme to other schools and organisations.

Highly recommended
From the start, all the booking system was very easy. The staff were very friendly and knowledgeable. We asked many, many questions and they were very helpful. The bikes are great quality and the Team made it easy for the students to build the bikes as the week went on. A great project for our Year 8 students.

Our instructor Matt was great at engaging with our group of young people in our SEN setting. So much so that they refused break time and wanted to carry on with the workshop! A fantastic way for young people to gain new skills and build confidence as well as bikes!

The velobuild academy
Seeing vulnerable young adults engaging with a fantastic well structured practical program was amazing. These young people who may not have been given opportunities embraced working with Mark our instructor. All young adults said how Mark was really approachable and how much they enjoyed working with him.
