Request for Support – Bicycles and Safety Gear for Newly Arrived Children
GIVIT
I am currently supporting a family who arrived in Australia on February 2026. They have three young children who have recently experienced significant displacement after coming from a war‑affected country.
During my visit, all three children expressed a strong desire to have bicycles. In their new neighbourhood, many local children ride their bikes daily, and these siblings would love to join in. At the moment, they feel isolated watching from the sidelines. Having bicycles would not only help them feel included in their community, but it would also support their confidence, wellbeing, and sense of normalcy after the trauma they have experienced.
They also require helmets, as they have never used safety gear before.
Providing this support would truly bring joy to these children and help them integrate more easily into their new environment. It would be a meaningful way to help them feel safe, welcomed, and
