Does anyone have any (sensible) suggestions for donating an unwanted gents bicycle, to a deserving new owner? I would like it to go to someone who perhaps needs a means of transport to get to work, or to college, etc. Therefore I don't just want to leave it outside the house with a "Free" note on it.
Thanks.

I'd Freegle it, adding a request that people explain the use they will put it before you decide who should have it.

@A Person's suggestion is ideal. Otherwise, take it to any branch of Halford's (eg Eastbourne) and they'll send it on to Re-Cycle, who ship bikes to Africa and also run workshops there where locals learn to mend bikes and from where the bikes are given to local people. They're a terrific charity.

Thanks for the v helpful suggestions. Jude - it's a large model, but I have to say Re-cycle sounds a super idea.

Yes, re-cycle is a great idea - I wonder if any of the bike shops in Lewes are involved ?

Seemingly not. Eastbourne Halfords is the nearest drop-off point listed, then Crawley.
