A Note from Joa
As I get ready to move on from PeachyKeen, I have been reflecting on what…
get social!
get social!
PeachyKeen was delighted to help Active Fife’s Wee Bike Fest which is designed to promote health & well being in the area.
Our remit was to provide activities over a series of evening events that highlighted Active Fife’s goal to promote cycling, health and well-being. This enabled the staff of Fife Council to encourage the local community to utilise its sports facilities and provide healthy living information.
And with it being Christmas, we decided to bring in a bit of festive cheer by using our PeachyKeen Pods to power a large illuminated Santa Claus and a Frosty the snowman model.
The event proved to be great fun for both children and their parents.
To see how we could bring a fun and educational experience to your event, contact us now.
Children from Capshard Primary School shone bright by marking Earth Hour in a unique and novel way by generating their own electricity with Andrew Bowie of PeachyKeen.
We designed a unique interactive experience which required pupils to use their pedal power to illuminate a light tower and view a DVD.
The educational experience was seen to be a major success with pupils able to understand the relation between energy and powering every day items such as lights and TV.
The event was also marked by everyone wearing bright, sparkly clothes and odd socks, to celebrate the lives of our special children.
Nearly £400 was raised and children decided proceeds will go to WWF, Moebius Trust, Downs Syndrome and Guide Dogs for the Blind.

When St Andrews Business Improvement District were looking for a unique way of promoting European Mobility Week, we were only too happy to help with a unique Multimedia Experience which required them to get on their bikes!
The PeachyKeen event station was located in the middle of the town square and commissioned to encourage members of the public to use our PeachyPods to power a TV displaying sustainable transport presentations.
The event was seen as a massive success engaging hundred of members of the public as well as acting as a fun way of allowing local and national politicians to interact.
As part of the project PeachyKeen sourced and played various video clips that related to the day’s theme.

PeachyKeen brought a bit of light relief to Stagecoach’s end of year finance processes by bringing their Energy Smoothie Experience to the firm’s executive offices.
This activity enabled the Stagecoach staff to relax and have some fun during a pressured time of their financial year and also brought together people from different departments who often did not see one another – an added bonus was that they got to burn off a bit of frustration and enjoy delicious raspberry smoothies.
To see how we could add our Energy Experience to your event or workplace contact us now.
PeachyKeen smoothie ingredients are based upon scrumptious raspberries supplied by Blacketyside Farm near Leven.
PeachyKeen has brought its unique approach to Illuminations and Multimedia to add a new dimension to the Old Kirk Ghost Walk in Kirkcaldy by projecting ghostly images and ghoulish sounds within the graveyard.
The Old Kirk Ghost Walk was designed to provide a fun and interactive activity for both young and old on a cold and clear November evening with period dressed actors located amongst the gravestones.
The PeachyKeen team worked closely with the committee of the Old Kirk to create a spooky experience that delighted the crowds.

PeachyKeen has demonstrated the power of human energy during Earth Hour at the University of St Andrews by projecting an image of the World Wildlife Fund’s panda logo against St Salvator’s Chapel tower.
The event was designed to bring together students from all parts of the world who attend St Andrews University with a fun and interactive experience using the PeachyKeen Pods and our Multimedia Experience.
There was a real buzz as PeachyKeen began powering the lasers in the early evening while there was still daylight with initially a few enthusiastic students and this quickly built to a large crowd as the darkness began to take effect and the lasers increased brightness danced across the United College building .
The projected image of the panda logo was used to promote St Andrews University’s participation in the Earth Hour event and emphasise internationally its commitment to the values of the World Wildlife Fund.

It was a fun and interactive exhibition, and we look forward to welcoming them back in future!” Lara Fahey, Transition University of St Andrews
“We would like to say a big thank you to the PeachyKeen team who visited us twice in a week. As part of our Wellbeing agenda, we had the Scalextrix Bikes to both of our sites in Bellshill and have to say a great time was had by all. It didn’t matter about fitness level or skills – this was an activity everyone could get involved in and the competition was fierce ! The team were really organised, friendly and encouraged our employees to give it a go and we will certainly be calling on them again for fun, different activities we can offer in the workplace. Thank you again from the Muller Dairy and Blowmoulding sites. “
"My company booked the PeachyKeen smoothie bikes for a Wellbeing event we were hosting in May. From start to finish, Joa was extremely friendly and helpful, responding quickly to any queries I had as well as providing helpful information about the bikes which we used to promote on our internal channels. The event itself was a great success – my colleagues absolutely loved the bikes, and the smoothies were delicious (we had lots of people going back for seconds, and thirds!). We also had some special requests on the day, and PeachyKeen were extremely accommodating and nothing was a hassle for them. Overall, a really great experience and would 100% recommend if you are looking for a fun (and healthy!) activity for any event you’re hosting." Eve Robertson, Modulr Finance
Just wanted to thank you and your Team for your efforts on behalf of CIRCLE for the Scottish Recovery Consortium Recovery Walk Scotland - Paisley 2022. The smoothie bike activity was so welcomed by those on attendance and there were so many smiles on people's faces it brought further joy and happiness to such a fantastic event. I will strongly be recommending PeachyKeen to our Service Partners. Not only the activity, but your staff team were so welcoming and really got involved in supporting the day and engaging with everyone who took part in the activity: amazing!!! Thank you so much from CIRCLE. Iain Risk, Circle
We booked Joa for our Bike Fun Day event and loved how colourful the Peachykeen stand was which helped attract people to have a go at the smoothie bike. The smoothies are actually delicious, and Joa provided all of the ingredients so that we did not have to source those. It's a great fun activity for all ages, and the team were so busy all day we completely used up all of the smoothie supplies! We will definitely book you again.
