Summary
Dealing with enquiries and lending out tandems and tag a longs to people with disabilities. Every loan brings a smile!Detailed description
The charity relies on volunteers around the country to store and lend out tandems to people with disabilities or additional needs. In Norfolk there are 4 tandems and 2 tag a longs. The volunteer stores the tandems, responds to enquires and then arranges loans . Each loan is for 2 months, often longer. So in reality there are not many loans every year. The borrower collects and returns the tandems. Ideally most tandems are out most of the time but the volunteer needs to have space to store them as necessary. This is a great opportunity to allow people to try out tandems before deciding if they should buy one. Borrowers are usually very grateful and the role is really rewarding.
About Charlotte's Tandems
We lend, at no cost (i.e. for free), tandems and tag-alongs to (and only to) people with disabilities or additional needs, who are unable to ride a bike safely on their own, so that they can enjoy the wonders of cycling.
