Just a quesion, I have a Theraplay trike that DS has outgrown, now the Chartity Whizzkidz paid for it and told me that they would like me to return it when he outgrew it, BUT if I was to pass it onto someone who needed it, would they moan???

Wouldn't they be passing it on to someone who needed it? Can you ask if that person could be the person you wanted to pass it on to - then nobody need moan! Otherwise, yes, I think if a charity pays for something for you, you ought not really to hand it on to someone else.

Oh, that's a bit different. I'd say it was broken if they asked then

I wouldn't pass on the Major buggy or wheelchair as they are loaned from the NHS but the way I see it is a dart teams raised the money for DS to have a trike, and I should be able to do what i like with it, I wouldn't sell it, but want to pass it on..... its a small one for aged 2 or 3 and it can take a long time to get one through a chartity and they cost £500

what about telling them you know someone who could benefit, and could you pass it to them?
