Here's what's happening at Freegle and friends in the run up to Christmas - see below.
Have a look our lovely new How-to-Freegle videos. Thanks to Jaki, Frankie and Nigel for putting these together and funding from the Cumbria Waste Prevention Fund. Here's the first - the other two are shown below.
There's now a Repair Cafe in Keswick on the first Saturday of the month, joining Kirkby Stephen, Penrith and South Lakes. Alston Moor Repair Cafe will be back in the New Year. Can you help start one in Carlisle?. Find out about Repair Cafes by watching this BBC video.
