SAFE Summerside is partnering with Peter Collins at Rideout's Bicycle Repair in Ellerslie and Belinda Woods at the Summerside Free Store to offer FREE Recycled Bicycles. Yes, at a time when everything is costing more, we are proud to offer free refurbished bicycles to the community - a long-time dream for many of the SAFE Summerside planning team.

DONATIONS
Please consider donating any bicycle (or bicycle parts) you no longer need. It could be an adult or a child's bicycle. Children grow out of bicycles so quickly. It is a shame how many bicycles go to landfills. Please reach out to Peter or Belinda to donate your bicycle or parts. The Free Store accepts donations every Tuesday (330pm-630 pm) and you can arrange a donation with Peter when it is convenient for both of you. A special thank you to the Summerside Police Services, who donate bicycles to the Summerside Free Store, to Peter MacFarlane of C&P Bicycle Repair (Kensington), who has also provided donations, and to the many unnamed individuals who continue to help with donations to those in need.
Once the donations have been received, Peter Collins donates his time and resources to transform bicycles in need of repair into a ridable fun time for one and all!
