Nick tells us all about the Broady Bikes initiative at Banksia Gardens, set up to give disadvantaged youth an opportunity to practice the sorts of skills that enable holding down a job while learning how to work on and fix bicycles. Providing broader as well as mechanical skills the program also provides engagement with education services and the wider community. Repaired bicycles are sold or provided to people in the local community that can use them. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

If you have a good quality bicycle to donate then please contact Nick on 0418436269\u00a0 or at\u00a0\u00a0nick@banksiagardens.org.au. Unfortunately, many cheaper bicycles from stores such as KMART etc cannot be repaired and are not suitable for donation.\u00a0<\/p>\n
