We are the Totnes Bike Hub, a local community bike shop situated in The Mansion, Totnes. We run weekly sessions for individuals who would like to improve their mental well-being, learn how to repair bicycles and meet others in a relaxed and informal setting. No previous experience is necessary and participants can work on their own bike or on one of our donated ones that the group can learn how to refurbish.
The sessions are run by our experienced mechanic and we keep the group size to around 4-5. We provide a warm and relaxing non-judgemental space, and always have tea and biscuits on hand!
If you would like to talk to someone about these sessions, please get in touch. We can provide help with transport costs (buses).
