EcoSwap Community Hub opens its doors on 6th July, I know we are in Bognor but I was wondering if anyone would be able to come and join us to let people know what you guys are doing. I think the key to making a difference is collaboration and I would love to support you guys however I can.
See their facebook page for more details and news!
The EcoSwap Community Hub will provide the community with resources required to reduce plastic and textile waste.
The Community Hub will provide equipment and reclaimed materials for the local community to utilise to recycle, repurpose and repair their items. There will also be workshops to learn how broken or end of life items can be transformed into new usable items that reduce the quantity of waste entering the UK system.
During the school holidays there will be work shops and activities for children, these will be provided completely free of charge and will include activities such as ceramic painting, woodwork, gardening skills, painting and sewing. We aim to teach children useful skills as well as educating them about the impact of plastic and textile waste on the environment.
Within our hub we will also provide zero waste and sustainable products which will be available on a donation basis to ensure everyone can afford good quality, low waste food. From pasta to dried fruit, herbs and spices, local honey and organic olive oil we will have a range of delicious options to help you transition to a less wasteful way of life. Bring your own containers or adopt one of ours to bring back time and again when you need to refill.
