Help Tammy restart a bicycle repair shop in London after a storm that collapsed the roof
A bicycle repair shop in London needs help replacing a full set of tools after a storm that collapsed the roof.
🇬🇧 London, England, United Kingdom2,543 views
For four years I have run a bicycle repair shop in London. In April, a storm that collapsed the roof took a full set of tools. I have no insurance, and the bank won't lend to me.
Before that, my customers came every Saturday, and I employed 3 people from the neighborhood. I have been out of business for 12 weeks.
This business pays my children's school fees and rent. I have already started working from home in small ways, but I can't meet orders without proper equipment.
Every contribution brings me closer to reopening, and I promise to post photos as I buy each item.
Once I'm back on my feet I plan to hire back the people I had to let go.
Where the $2,400 goes:
• Replacing a full set of tools: $1,100
• Initial stock: spare parts: $310
• Shop repairs and licensing: $470
• Working capital for the first month: $520
Thanks for being kind about this.
