We Are...
Welcome to Warwickshire and Solihull Blood Bikes Charity.
We are a dedicated group of volunteers who provide an essential and life-saving service to our local hospitals in Coventry, Warwickshire and Birmingham.
Our team of committed volunteers consists of highly trained riders and support staff who generously give their time and skills to help others. We are motorcyclists with a purpose, using our passion for riding to serve a greater cause. Equipped with specially adapted motorcycles, we navigate through traffic and reach our destinations swiftly, often delivering life-saving supplies in record time.
At Warwickshire and Solihull Blood Bikes, we understand the urgency and importance of transporting blood, medical supplies, and other vital items swiftly and safely. We work in partnership with hospitals, healthcare facilities, and blood transfusion services, ensuring that urgent deliveries reach their destinations promptly, 24 hours a day, 7 days a week;
All weather, all year round.
We Believe...
Our charity is built on the values of a free, accessible and safe health system underlined by compassion, reliability, collaboration and excellence in everything that we do, every single day.
We genuinely care about the well-being of others and strive to make a positive difference in the lives of those in need. We approach every task with empathy, understanding the critical importance of our deliveries and the impact they have on patients and healthcare providers.
Working together is the key to achieving our goals. We foster a collaborative and supportive environment, encouraging our volunteers, partner organisations, and local community to join forces in making a collective impact.
Excellence is in everything we do. Our volunteers undergo rigorous advanced rider training by former police riders to ensure their skills are sharp and ready to tackle the harshest conditions on the roads, and we continuously evaluate and improve our processes to deliver the highest standard of service. We are committed to professionalism, efficiency, and continuous learning.
