Hi,
Does anyone know of any grants/subsidies for buying bikes?
My husband has had stage 4 colon/lung cancer for 11 years. Our boys 10&12 can be quite restricted by it, for example we had never been for a bike ride. This Monday it was his birthday and I hired an ebike. He got on surprisingy well and we had such a wonderful time together, I would like to buy one.
Hi , sounds like a really good idea. It depends where you live though, they have a scheme in Scotland, there was one in England but the deadline has gone. It might be worth trying local charities.

If you find dust in my house, write your name in it. When the signatures overlap I'll get the polish.

Hi, thanks. We're in Hampshire. Typical that I have missed an offer. Who was that with?
They were government grants through local councils. Might be worth checking with yours in case they would make an exception.
