Crediton Give and Take Fortnight
Sustainable Crediton's Waste Action Group are pleased to
announce the imminent arrival of Give and Take Fortnight, a
pop up shop on Crediton High Street with a major difference....
everything in it will be Free!!
Give and Take Fortnight will take place at 21 High Street
Crediton (the old Gees shop) from 6th to 21st
February 2015. It will be open from 10am to 4pm daily, except
Sundays, and staffed by Sustainable Crediton volunteers. The shop
has been made possible thanks to sponsorship from the Big Lottery
Fund and Devon County Council's locality fund.
The aim is to recycle perfectly good, reusable household goods
people no longer need to stop them ending up in landfill, and also
for Kirtonians to have some fun and the unique experience of
shopping for goods that are absolutely free!
Of course to make the shop a success WE NEED YOU to start
emptying your cupboards. Look out all those books, toys, cd's,
garden tools, ornaments, clothes and household goods you no longer
need that are taking up space and are still in perfectly good,
useable condition. Bring them along to the shop and we will sort
them and put them on display for others to browse through and take
away.
It will not be necessary to bring along goods in order to come
and 'shop'. However we are sure you will agree this is the ideal
opportunity to have a good sort out at home and also dispose of
those unwanted Christmas presents to grateful recipients. So start
getting organised now, and every time you open a wardrobe,
cupboard, drawer or the garden shed and look inside ask yourself,
'do I really need that'?
There are 2 months until we open, so you have plenty of time to
make a grand pile of donations, plus create lots of new space at
home to house all the FREE goodies you could be bringing home from
the shop!!
Thanks for your help
