Too Good to Throw Away – Community reuse and recycling event

Dudley residents who have unwanted items that are too good to throw away can gift them to a community sharing scheme.

Dudley Council is holding one of its ‘Too Good to Throw Away’ events at Upper Gornal Pentecostal Church on Tuesday 12 August.

People visiting the Eve Lane Church will be able to donate household items that are in good working order between 10am and 2pm

Items accepted include curtains, bedding, cushions, kitchenware, small electricals, clothes, food and unused toiletries.

Anything collected will be shared between charitable organisations in the borough, including Provision House, which repurposes them for community use.

Residents are politely reminded that the scheme is not requesting furniture, soft furniture or white goods

People can find out more and see a full list of wanted items online at: www.dudley.gov.uk/council-community/starting-over/
