We would like to pilot two new community initiatives and would like to know if you would be interested in using them or in volunteering!
A Community Fridge is a space that brings people together to share food, meet up, learn new skills and prevent fresh food from going to waste. They’re open to all and anyone can share or take food, including surplus from supermarkets, local food businesses, producers, households and gardens. Fridges are run by community groups in shared spaces such as schools, community centres and shops.
A Library of Things is an organisation which loans out items to members of its local community, promoting a sharing economy. These items generally include DIY tools, garden machinery, kitchen appliances and useful household items. Some libraries charge a small fee.
Please complete our brief survey here, to tell us your thoughts on bringing these initiatives to the town!
