Several members of the ReZolve team decided to alleviate the need for new goods during Climate Week and turned to reuse instead. Cynthia our Training Manager is fashioning some cushions covers from her old curtains, Alan our Operations Manager was looking to build some raised beds from reclaimed timber - reusing and growing his own veg (double points)! And Tara, our Promotions Officer, has had a spring clean and has streamlined her Wardrobe, offering a bag of good quality clothes to her local charity shop. Tara advises that she is now psyching herself up to tackle her 18 year old's sons wardrobe that hasn't been internally fumigated for nearly three years and still has a primary school uniform hanging in it!
We have also come across this great website which also aims to cut down the need for consumer purchasing but is based around sharing rather than reuse. It still needs a lot of people to sign up to be really useful but the concept is great: www.streetbank.com
