RightBike (a social enterprise that operates under the umbrella of Causeway Work Centre which is a registered charity.)

Snacks Staff and volunteers love snacks though we usually make an effort to feed ourselves. It’s great when we can provide a little pick me up for those suffering from low blood sugar crashes. And we aren’t too picky either… Fruit, veggies, chips, and (best of all) freezies are gladly accepted.

Please contact us if you are able to help.
