Ealing Freegive Group
Reusing items saves money, reduces waste and is a way to do something positive for the environment. Items we throw away such as bed, television, clothes, furniture, printer, toys, sofa and computer can pass to someone in your community.If you haven't heard yet, there is a wonderful organisation called Ealing Freegive ( http://groups.yahoo.com/group/ealingfreegive ). Ealing Freegive Group connects people who are giving and getting unwanted items for free in the London Borough of Ealing. It's all about recycle, reuse, reduce and keeping good stuff out of landfills and, at the same time, helping someone in your community by gifting them the item you no longer need. Another benefit of using Ealing Freegive is that it encourages poeple to get rid of junk that we no longer need and promote community involvement in the process. By using Ealing Freegive, not only are you able to get rid of your item with the minimum of fuss; you will also be doing your part in stopping another reusable item ending up in a landfill. It's completely free to join.Visit Ealing Freegive Group at http://groups.yahoo.com/group/ealingfreegiveFreegive group is active in all London boroughs. Find a group near you at http://www.freegive.co.uk/londonfg.htmHow freegive group works: 1. You have a television or clothes or furniture or printer or toys you were going to throw out.2.
