About Us
The power of a community. And the magic of art. When the two come together, it gathers strength to bring about changes and make ideas work. Helmets For India strongly believes that by bringing together the global motorcycling community through art to spread awareness about safe riding amongst the everyday commuter.
Helmets For India is on a mission to educate the people about wearing a helmet while riding by organising awareness drives and giving away helmets to people in need.
The initiative welcomes individuals and organisations to join hands and together take a formidable step in making Indian roads a safer place.
ABOUT NIELS-PETER JENSEN
AKA NPJ, Niels is a quite well-known mountain biker. In the course of his travels across the world, he started dabbling in multiple media to share his adventures and stories with the world. In the process, he discovered his other passion - design. Today, he runs his motorcycle design studio by the name of NPJ Designs, where he also works bicycles, fashion and home accessories.
In 2018, during his visit to India, he fell in love with the infectious energy of the country and decided to make it his second home. He was quite moved to see people riding two-wheelers without wearing helmets. In an effort to contribute positively, he decided to bring about a change. He joined hands with his friends and the locals to initiate Helmets For India.
With the motto of safe rides for everyone, everywhere, he spearheads the movement to bring about a change, slowly but surely.
The safety requirements for motorcycles in India are still catastrophic. Partly entire families sit on a motorcycle or scooter, pushing through a crowded traffic, in which there are apparently no rules and hardly decent roads. And mostly without a helmet! For Niels-Peter Jensen this is an incredible dangerous situation that needs to be changed!
