    Hi i work for a charity (Help The Aged) in Reading but we do not pick gods up and i am not aware of any charities which do collections (other than the sacks through the door) Our charity shop at 65 Wokingham Road RG6 1LH would be willing to take it if you're able to get it there.
    If you have no luck have you thought of using freecycle?

    Hi,

    I know that the British Heart Foundation do pick up larger items for sale in their outlets. I have a shop near me which sells larger furniture, white goods and things like bikes.
    As they are such a large charity I would hope that there may be a branch near you who will collect your bike.
    I have found the number for you off their website, if you would like to look into donating it to them...
    'For collection of larger items please call 0870 120 4141'.

    hope this helps
    Lisa
