How does the scheme work?
Barnardo’s buys a bike and/or safety equipment, and you then hire this by paying out of your salary over 12 months.
By paying in this way, you save on National Insurance contributions as well as income tax.
At the end of the hire agreement, Barnardo's may give you the chance to buy the bike/equipment at fair market value. (Any such arrangements will be the subject of a separate agreement.)
Where will my bike come from?
If you go through the cycle2work scheme, the bike will come from Halfords. If you go through the cycleplus scheme, it could come from a number of organisations (including independent shops) around the UK.
