Donation of old bicycles for young persons intervention


Good Morning,

 

The Child Centred Policing Team are looking to set up an intervention project with switch youth services in Maidstone town centre where young people can come along and repair old bikes.  The intentions of the project are to divert offending, learn new skills, enforce some core values as well as break down barriers with police. 

Cycles UK have agreed to support the project and ensure that once fixed, the bicycles are road safe.  However we are looking for members of the public to kindly donate bicycles for young people aged between 11-16.  If you are in a position to help us then please drop us a message and we will be in touch.
