London Courier Emergency

Looking after the people who keep the city working smoothly, LCEF provide a small amount of money to couriers who are knocked off or injured. Considering that most couriers are 'self-employed sub-contractors', they don't get sick pay or time off, they're only earning when they're riding. If that's not bad enough, riding through London isn't exactly the safest of jobs. The London Courier Emergency Fund tries to counteract the pretty wretched working conditions of London messengers by having a fund to look after couriers who are laid low for whatever reason. LCEF are definitely some of the good guys in cycling.
