Support our appeal

Bicycle Toolkits for Mechanics in Africa

We collect unwanted bicycles from across the UK, shipping them to Africa where they’re distributed and meticulously maintained. Our mechanics ensure these bicycles provide sustainable transportation solutions.

But to continue their vital work, we need your support. Your donation will replenish our toolkits, ensuring our mechanics have the resources they need. Every contribution makes a difference.
