    Is there any schemes going like Kit for Africa?
    Somewhere we can donate used cycle clothes.

    I know Matt Brammeier was doing something, is there anything in Ireland?

    Would prefer to do that rather than just give stuff to local charity shop.

    Qhubeka would be the big one in terms of bikes for africa but really don't know if they have a presence here. I'd have a few bits myself too say the least I would like to see go somewhere like that.

    Brammeier's Kit appeal was done via Africa Kit Appeal and Fitzcycles in Stillorgan was an Irish Drop off point.

    The website mentions the 2017 kit appeal started last October so may still be ongoing. Contact details are listed here

    That link didn't bring to where I thought it would :-). But the Attaquer brand seem to have an active page which tells you to post unwanted kit off to Australia if you want to donate stuff. I have a small amount of items I would love to donate.

    I see from the original post from 2016 (I think) that Marrey Bikes in Mayo were involved but may no longer be active in accepting stuff.
