Recyling unwanted possessions!

They don’t all have to go to the tip or in the skip outside the Village Hall!

Liz Chaderton from Whistley Green is a member of the East Berkshire Freecycle Network. This network, which operates via the Yahoo Groups on the Internet, enables people to offer unwanted things to people who do want them. No money changes hands - this is a free exchange of goods.

A recent list of offers included: kitten food, a unicycle, and a toolbox. The list of wanted goods included: a tumble dryer and leaves and grass cuttings for composting.

To join the Network go to http://groups.yahoo.com/group/eastberks_freecycle/ and click on the “Join the Group” button. This goes to the Yahoo Groups page where you can sign up for free membership of the network. You then have access to the list of messages that shows items currently available. There are 1,115 members in the East Berkshire Freecycle Network.
