We are looking for a Trike 

5/5/2014

PictureTrike needed for young boy with special needs
We have just had a request in from a young man with special needs to see if we can get a trike for himself.
We don't have one in stock , so if you have one or know of someone who has one that is no longer needed , please get in touch so we can provide one for him.
It would have to suit a young boy aged 8-12 years old , with a height of a little under 4 feet .
This little lad is unbelievable he does not let anything stop him taking part in everything. He has a balance issue and would like to cycle with his family. Stabilizers are unsafe for him, we would appreciate any help with this to achieve his goal

Please share and ask around - if the bike is sourced locally we can call and collect it - no matter what state of repair its in - we'll fix it up and get it road worthy again .

Thanks to our friends in the local newspaper , the Kildare Nationalist for the great coverage on page 2 of this weeks paper

That script is a bit small to read in the photo here is what it say's :

Dave Henshaw of Athy Mens Shed is loking for a horse. And not to eat!  Dave needs a horse to pull his trap in the St. Patricks Day Parade in Athy, " I hope I can save a horse from becoming a beef burger" joked Dave. Anyone who has a horse that might be suitable is asked to contact Dave on 087 7707476 or 059 8638968

What we do with IT donations

A refurbished computer going to the Womens Activity Group in Athy
We recently updated our site with a IT wish list , the idea behind it is that there are often companies with large amounts of computer hardware that they will upgrade from time to time.


What we are hoping to do , is get our hands on that hardware that is being disposed of and recycle it back into working machines again.


So if you know of any companies who are looking to dispose of their old hardware , would you be so kind as to ask them to contact us and we can arrange delivery / collection of their machine's.

Just a Quick wish list if someone or some company can help us out .

its not a big list and it would not be too expensive if you could help us out.

We have made a room upstairs above our Kitchen , and to finish it off we need some electricial fittings .

on our list is :

Sockets 2x twin
Bushings 4 x 20mm
Couplings 2x 20mm
Earth Sleeving 1 meter
Florescent Lights 2x 5 foot twin
Surface Switch + Pattress 1x1 gang

Perhaps you have done some electricial work around the house /office /factory and have some of this left over. Would you donate it to us.
You might know a electrical contractor who could have half this stuff hanging around in his or her van, Ask them for us if we could have it.

thanks
