Who do we donate old, unwanted bike to?

Hi Guys and Girls

 

So, as a back story, one of the buildings that we serve on the body corporate has been having a 'public space' clean up drive.

 

We have now landed up with a host of abandoned, old bicycles.

 

Is there a cause or a specific place that I can arrange for these to go to be turned into low income commuters?

 

These are not good bikes and I'm sure most will need extensive rehabilitation. I just want to ask before we are forced to scrap the lot.

 

I feel they could be better served in the community after some love.

BEN bikes.  They're just around the corner from you and will collect as well.  I contacted them last week and they popped around and collected all the old stuff I no longer wanted / needed.
