Partnerships

At Squire, we’re proud to support and partner with valued businesses, organisations and charities that help build communities as strong as our locks! Wan't to join our growing list of partners? Please get in touch.

Trash Free Trails

Trash Free Trails’ mission is to help people reconnect with nature through removing single-use plastic pollution from wild spaces. So far the project has cleared over 450,000 pieces of single-use pollution, creating nearly 11,000km of trash free trails.

As project partners Squire has supplied bike locks for A-Teamer use whilst out on trails and at events, as well as providing locks for its GeoTrash initiative – keeping the
GeoTrash boxes safe and sound across the country in all sorts of weather.

Our very own Neil Hudson has run Trash Free Trail activations at cycle shows across the UK and is one of the Trash Free Trails A-Team Ambassadors for the Cannock Chase area, working closely with the Trash Free team.

XO Bikes

Onwards & Upwards is a charity that creates businesses specifically to inspire, train and employ prison leavers. The first of their five businesses is XO Bikes which began in March 2022. XO Bikes is a business that refurbishes and sells donated bikes. Their skilled team of ‘fixers’ (mechanics) have been to prison or were heading down that road but through the training and opportunities offered by XO Bikes have had the chance to learn new skills and turn their lives around.

All profits from XO bike sales go back into training and hiring more prison leavers, keeping them in work, and out of prison.

Throughout the year Squire has committed to raising funds for the charity, most recently via a 75km cycle which raised nearly £7000 for the charity.
