THE GREATER GOOD


With the support of the cycling community, Glasgow-based social enterprise Bike for Good has secured its future after a tough winter. Alex Ballinger sat down with CEO Greg Kinsman-Chauvet to hear how it helps get more people on bikes


We offer some services that don’t create any income,” said Greg Kinsman-Chauvet, explaining the business model behind Bike for Good, “which is why we’re a charity.


“If you’re a business, there’s no point doing something that doesn’t make any money. You’ll shut. But for us, what matters is helping the people and the impact. “Our charity mission is to enable people to ride a bike, so this is what we do.” Bike for Good, a charity and social enterprise based in Glasgow, was founded as Glasgow Bike Shed in 2010 in a small stall in the city’s Barras market, starting out with a few donated bikes and a minimal tool kit - and of course a team of dedicated volunteers.
