Bernie Cullen - Project Manager/ Director
Bernie is one of the two founding directors of The Bike Rescue Project which began in her back garden. She was also one of the early co-op members of York Cycleworks in the early eighties, where she trained as a bicycle mechanic and learned the trade. Bernie had a background as a research technician; then after leaving Cycleworks to study Fine Art, she became a Sign Language Interpreter and special needs tutor. Along the way Bernie has trained as a psychotherapist, set up and been involved with a number of projects and co-operatives including a short life housing co-op, and been involved in bands as a singer and songwriter. She has two children and lives with her daughter Chloe, and Fred and Wilma the cats; her son and various extras live in the annex. She owns a Pat Hanlon bicycle which she loves.
