Verwood Freecycle
Our second Freecycle event was an epic event! Bigger, better, more participants with on average 80% of freebies were rehomed.
Our third Freecycle event is on 4th June 2023. The interactive map will be published here before the event.
The aim is simple. Have a clear out and put your unwanted items outside of your house from 10am and let people hunt for treasure.

Other Events
VoW is currently consolidating their efforts and returning to their core values of Reduce, Reuse and Inspire. Our lack of appearance at some community events does not reflect all the good work the team is undertaking behind the scenes. The need is clear. We need to reduce our waste, plastic in particular, in order to save this planet. Do join the team and help achieve this.
