Any old bikes!

Led by Rachel Carthy

Grant and Pete met up with our friend David for some garden maintenance within the grounds of St Matthew’s church. Tasks included clearing a boundary of weeds and shaping some trees. Talk turned to all things sport - Wimbledon final, T20 final and Grants love of cycling up steep hills! Pete talked about his recent voluntary session at Derbyshire Refugee Solidarity. There are over 100 refugees awaiting a bike to help access the community. So Pete’s on the look out for any unwanted bikes please! Great evening.
