Brought By Bike was created by me, Helena, while on maternity leave with my second daughter. The area we live in had recently become a Low Traffic Neighbourhood (LTN), which meant that a traffic-choked junction by our home was now gloriously quiet and safe. We were already a car-free household but I now started to think about ways that I could help to support the scheme, including avoiding adding more traffic to the peripheral roads. While I was unable to do very much directly, caring for a 3 year old and a newborn during the national lockdown, I decided that one, tiny, difference I could make would be to seek out alternatives to the traditional van mode for any delivery or service that we required.
