Mountain bikes and guitar donations needed

East Lothian Council Throughcare and Aftercare Team is seeking donations of adult size mountain bikes and guitars.

The bikes will help young people travel to and from work and college, visit friends, get to football practice and improve their fitness. Lights and pumps and bike locks are also really appreciated   If you have an unused guitar you would like to donate, the team will pass it on to one of their young people. You may be instrumental in creating the next Mercury Music Award winner!

The team provide support to young people aged 16 to 26 who have been in foster care or residential care or who have arrived unaccompanied in Scotland and require support.

Workers support young people across East Lothian and other regions. The team uses a local bike mechanic to check over donated bikes and fit new parts where necessary.

Please contact : UASC (Unaccompanied and Asylum Seeking Children’s) Throughcare and Aftercare Worker Annie Landsburgh alandsburgh@eastlothian.gov.uk 07929838038 (Monday – Thursday)

Annie will then be able to arrange collection. Many thanks!
