Mod Note:
As per @Ajax Bay's request, I have added the map and the link to the map on the main thread.

I've started updating the list to catch up with the amazing work of @annedonnelly

i'll keep at it now I can comfortably sit at the office chair for an hour at a time. The only trouuble is that I want to visit so many of these projects.

Went looking for one after seeing this thread, only to find that the commercial space it had been on is now being made into houses.

I did find one I didn't know though:

https://www.hypeurbanbikes.co.uk/

They have two locations presently, Wirral and Liverpool.

Popped in here today to donate a couple of unused bikes; lovely place, took the bikes with thanks and I had a chat with @Gunk whilst I was there. It's the sort of place I could easily find myself volunteering at if it were a bit closer to home.

Really nice to meet you Paul, and thanks for the donations!

Sadly Bike Town, the charity from the Glasgow area I linked to, is closing down at the end of this week.
Lack of funding is the reason
I'll delete the link from the main thread - what am I gonna do for a reliable bike mechanic close to home?
