My bike-mad uncle is turning 80 this year, and has asked for no gifts.
I'm looking for a good charity I could make a donation to instead, which might improve people's lives through cycling. Either UK or developing world, open to ideas. Hoping to avoid high admin costs and get money right to the front line.
Thanks
World Bicycle Relief for the developing world option. https://worldbicyclerelief.org/
Blatent plug for a small charity that I cycle with, Bury Tandem club take blind and visually impaired people out.

And happy 80th to your Uncle
Cyclists fighting cancer, they buy and/or modify bikes for kids going through cancer treatment to help keep them active.
Charlotte's tandems do great stuff helping people experience cycling that would otherwise be unable to do so

A charity dedicated to developing mountain biking at the grassroots in the UK, set up by an STWer no less.
Got a mate linked to Cyclists Fighting Cancer, they do great work.
