Help Matthew get a trike!

Matthew is a typical 11 year old boy. He loves computer games, lego, swimming, scouts, the colour green and cats. He also has Asperger's Syndrome and Dyspraxia.

Since Matthew was 4 years old we have tried to teach him to ride a two wheel bike. But Matthew physically can't.

Every time there is a cycle segment at school, Matthew has to sit on the sidelines and watch- except this year.... this year our dear friend Lucy lent Matthew her trike, and after some initial hiccups- he was off!

Matthew loves to cycle! And in such a cycle friendly city as Palmerston North, having his own trike would give him so much independence and freedom like other boys his age.
