The Wheelchair Aid Project in the Gold Coast are beginning to ship their excess bicycles to Africa after receiving an influx of old bikes following their plea for materials in 2015.
The Project, which uses old bicycles to create wheelchairs for people in third world countries, have had an ‘unbelievable result’ from the community donating bikes, with over 3,000 bikes in their possession.
Plans are currently underway with Uganda Cycling Association president Sam Muwonge, to organise a shipping container to bring the excess bikes to Uganda for underprivileged children.
