Join us for our regular Zoom drop-in sessions to talk about all things reuse in organisations.

If you're involved with facilitating the reuse of surplus assets like furniture and equipment in your organisation then you'll learn a great deal in these informal sessions. 

Reuse is an activity that can have an enormous return on investment... when done right. The returns that can be gained are not only financial (due to budget and time savings), but also environmental, thanks to being more resourceful and avoiding sending useful assets to landfill. 

Let’s not miss it!

If the Covid-19 pandemic has taught us anything, it's that we can take radical action in the face of a clear and imminent threat and rapidly change our habits and ways of life.

Whether it is cleaner air, a renewed appreciation of nature or the switch to home working, it's clear that the changes we assumed would take years can happen in a matter of weeks. 

The Committee on Climate Change (CCC) has urged UK Government Ministers to seize the opportunity to turn the COVID-19 crisis into a defining moment in the fight against climate change. But we must all do our bit and rise to the occasion.

This is a rare and important opportunity and we must seize the moment and build on these gains.

Right here and right now.

Below we've collected some ideas to help you do just that.

We have upgraded our search bar so now finding items is easier than ever! The new 'sort by' filter options will include an array of useful search criteria that you and your organisation can utilise! 

In an effort to help protect frontline NHS workers during the COVID-19 pandemic, we’ve launched an online marketplace for businesses to donate vital equipment and supplies.

Any business can upload their surplus PPE or equipment and we will make sure it gets into the NHS or other frontline services like social care and pharmacies. 

Sometimes you do not find a match for your surplus assets internally or even within the community. But you do not want to send those assets to landfill. 

You work in a massive organisation with loads of staff. Have you ever thought that your staff might want to take away your surplus assets?
