53. Join the Freecycle Network

Oakley member Paul Batley recommends you to join the UK Freecycle network




Founded in 2003, there are now 494 groups spread across the country and approaching 2 million members.

• Freecycle groups match people who have things they want to get rid of with people who can use them. The goal is to keep usable items out of landfills.
• By using what we already have on this earth, we reduce consumerism, manufacture fewer goods, and lessen the impact on the earth.
• Another benefit of using Freecycle is that it encourages us to get rid of junk that we no longer need and promote community involvement in the process.
• It’s all done via the Internet

The website is simple and easy to read – have a look at their website.

It’s just like E bay but without the money – get registered straightaway !
