Since we started 20 years ago, Cyclox has been led by a team of dedicated trustees, supported by volunteers.
Thanks to donations, membership and funding from the Foundation for Integrated Transport, we now have a member of staff to lead our campaigns and support the trustees.

Alison Hill
Chair
A former public-health doctor, Alison wove cycling into her professional life by bringing together research and data about the benefits of active travel on health and wellbeing. She was on the board of Cycling England for its duration and chaired The Bikeability Trust until 2023. She was nominated as one of Cycling UK’s 100 women in cycling in 2019.

Kathryn McNicoll
Honorary Secretary | Trustee
Kathryn plays a key role in our community engagement and outreach activities, heading up Cyclox stalls and Dr Bike stands at events. She managed the Bikes for Key Workers scheme in 2020 and the allocation of donated bikes to refugees for the Sanctuary Wheels project in 2022. Kathryn has been volunteering with Cyclox since 2014 and was nominated as one of Cycling UK’s 100 women in cycling in 2022.

Ben Sawyer
Treasurer | Trustee
Ben is an enthusiastic cyclist and cargo-bike evangelist. He and his family ditched their car in 2019 and replaced it with a cargo bike. Ben grew up in a cycling family and delights in passing his enthusiasm for cycling, sailing and the outdoors down to his two young daughters.

Steve Unwin
Membership Secretary | Trustee
Steve has been riding bikes for leisure, sport, commuting and urban transport since childhood and was an early adopter of an e-assist bike – of which he is a keen advocate. Steve helps to run Cyclability, a community interest company providing inclusive cycling facilities in Oxford.

Andy Chivers
Events Coordinator | Trustee
Andy was a GP in Jericho until retiring in 2016. He has been a committee member since 2009, puts together our monthly newsletter, organises our regular talks and helps Kathryn with stalls and Dr Bike sessions at local events.

Ian Callaghan
Trustee
Originally from Manchester via Leeds, Bradford and Brixton with an interest and an MA in urban design, Ian is now a primary-school teacher. He became involved with advocacy in Brixton when he asked Lambeth Cyclists to help run a Dr Bike for his students. In Oxford he has helped to establish regular Kidical Mass rides to emphasise the need for safe streets for children and family members aged 8–80.

James Dawton
Trustee
James has a long involvement with Cyclox. He focuses on consultations, kerbs, turning radii and other exciting details. Away from Cyclox, he repairs bicycles for a living. He coordinates the rides list for Oxford Cycling UK, and rides his bike most Sundays, as well as using a bike for utility cycling.

Lucy Giuliano
Campaigns Director | Staff
From Beijing to Burkina Faso and London Cycling Campaign to Love to Ride, Lucy has cycled, and worked in the cycling sector, in many different places. She set up Spoke Out in her home city of Derby to support, encourage and empower more girls, women and non-binary people to cycle. Lucy works part-time in her role and oversees volunteer management, fundraising, communications and our campaigns.

Jane Buekett
Volunteer
Jane has cycled in Oxford since the 1980s, during which time potholes have remained a remarkably consistent hazard.
She has an editorial background and helps update the Cyclox website and blog.
