carolyn_t Sep 2018 2:31pm, 28 Sep 2018 212 posts	Quote Pin carolyn_t Hey First time on this thread. Attempting to declutter both my house in preparation for hopefully moving next year, and my Dad's house after he died earlier this year. Does anyone know if there is a charity that takes old motorbike helmets e.g. for first aid practice? I tried St John Ambulance but they weren't interested.
