School Bikes Africa Appeal

We are collecting bicycles for the School Bikes Africa Appeal. Bikes should be strong, sturdy mountian bike style with a minimum 24" wheel size. Racer bikes are not suitable. If you have a bike to donate it can be dropped off at any of our six Recycling Centres. All bikes collected will be refurbised and sent to children in Africa to help them travel to school safely.
