    We could not be more thrilled with the incredible new bike and scooter shelter installed at St John Fisher. From our very first contact, Dave and the team at Doing R Bit have been an absolute pleasure to work with. They made the entire process seamless, efficient, and completely stress-free.

    The shelter itself is fantastic—robust, beautifully designed, and built to last. Both the children and adults at our school are absolutely delighted with it. It has already created a massive buzz, and the children can’t wait to ride their bikes and scooters to school knowing they have such a brilliant, safe place to park them.

    Thank you, Dave and the team, for your outstanding workmanship, professionalism, and dedication. We cannot recommend Doing R Bit highly enough!
    Thank you!

  • Redwood Academy, Maltby (2) – Ruth Berry

    Maltby Redwood Academy is incredibly grateful for the installation of our new bicycle shelter in the EYFS and KS1 playground. This fantastic addition provides our children with a safe and secure place to store their bicycles throughout the school day, encouraging more families to consider active travel as part of their daily school routine. We’re passionate about promoting healthy lifestyles and supporting children to develop positive habits from an early age. The shelter is a wonderful resource that will help us to encourage more children to cycle to school, supporting both their physical wellbeing and our commitment to creating a healthier, more active school community.

    I was handed the details of this project by our EYFS lead, and from day one dealing with Dave from Doin R Bit was smooth and professional and the work carried out was faultless. The overall project has made an impact on the children that this week more and more children are wanting to come to school on their bikes now they have a nice new shelter, I have even been by the children asked if I’ve made it, but sadly I couldn’t take any praise this time.

    I would like to think after this project we as a school would like to use Doin R Bit for other projects here at Maltby Redwood Academy in the near future.

    I was really impressed with the detail and expertise from the planning process all the way through to the installation or our Bike Barn. Then, when I saw the quality of the product itself, I was absolutely blown away. Beautifully crafted and with a living roof, the Bike Barn is a fantastic addition to our school and a real incentive for the children to come to school on their bikes or scooters. After a very well attended launch event we continue to see a steady number of families choosing more active ways to travel, none of which would have been possible without the Cycle Storage for Schools Project.

    We are delighted with our new cycle shelter from Doing R Bit. The quality of the installation is excellent, providing a secure, durable and attractive facility for our pupils. Since its installation, the shelter has been used extensively and has significantly enhanced our cycling and scooter provision at Charnock Hall. It has encouraged more pupils to travel actively to and has become a valued addition for pupils. The service provided throughout was professional, efficient and highly responsive. We would have no hesitation in recommending Doing R Bit to other schools.

    We are delighted with the bike shelter that Doing R Bit designed and built for our school. From the very beginning, Dave worked closely with us to understand our requirements, designing a shelter that met our needs perfectly while making the best use of the space available.

    Dave’s attention to detail, craftsmanship and commitment to achieving the highest standards are evident throughout. The finished product is both visually impressive and highly functional, and it is something we are incredibly proud to have on site.

    Most importantly, the shelter has had an immediate impact, increasing the number of children choosing to travel to school by bike from day one. We would not hesitate to recommend Doing R Bit to any organisation looking for a high-quality, bespoke cycle shelter.

    Since the installation of our bike / scooter shelter, courtesy of Doing R Bit, at Swallownest Primary School, we have noticed a clear and significant increase in the number of children who are biking and scooting to school.

    In previous years, some children have ridden or scootered to school, only for their parents to have to then carry home. Having this facility now enables our children to travel to school in an active way while also having a safe and secure spot to store their transport.

    Over the last few years, we have accessed Bikeability training, only for the children to not be able to bike to school due to these storage issues. This now removes this issue.

    In terms of the process for installation, it couldn’t have been simpler. A date was arranged and everything was taken care of by Dave and the staff at Doing R Bit. In the space of a few hours, our amazing new shelter was erected and ready to go!

    We are so pleased to have been selected to receive the shelter and are so encouraged to see how our children are engaging with it. We would highly recommend Dave Spencer and Doing R Bit to anyone who is considering something similar for their school.

    A huge thank you to Dave and his team at Doing R Bit for their amazing work on our Bike Barn with the living roof.

    This has hugely helped to encourage more active travel to school as well as providing our children with a safe space to store their bikes and scooters.

    The living roof is a great added feature, and we love the sustainable resources used throughout! We cannot thank Dave and his team enough for their hard work, effort and dedication to perfection.

    Since the installation of our Bike Barn and scooter store we have seen an increase in the amount of bikes and scooters being used to journey to and from school in an active way.

    The store is incredibly well built, eco-friendly and looks great in its environment. The DoingRBit team were easy to liaise with, they were very professional and completed the work quickly and efficiently without disruption to school or issue.
