Bike fixer-upper

Belinda from Stoke

I am collecting some items for ni Vanuatu fruit pickers who will be in the Nelson region soon. Amongst the items for use now and to take back home at some bikes and 3 wheeler prams, I've either bought or been given.

FOR THE BIKES I'm after someone who would be prepared to do some small fixes. Brake cable replacement, adjusting brake pads and pumping tyres. Ideally someone who would show the recipients of the bikes how to do these jobs would be even better, as bikes are commonly used in the places they will be rehomed to.
FOR THE PRAMS - 2 have a wheel that sometimes falls off and tyres need pumping - possible tube replacement.
THE PRAMS are to be donated to families who have a disabled child, allowing more mobility.
I just need the labourer, I will pay for the parts.

Thanks in advance. Belinda
