Club donates bikes to local initiative to help unemployed people

Mr David Gibson collecting the first of 45 bikes which we have donated to the community impact team who work with local charity the Children's Centre to restore and sell bicycles as part an inititative to help local unemployed people,


Following a successful project in 2016, to collect and send surplus bicycles for reuse by charity 'Bikes4Africa', the Rotary Club of Rushen & Western Mann were left with a surplus of bikes that it was not possible to to forward onto 'Bikes4Africa'. 

The Club therefore decided in January 2017 to donate these surplus bicyles to the the Isle of Man Childrens Centre supported Community Impact Team (CIT) – a civic-minded initiative which helps get people back into meaningful employment or education.
