I'm hoping we will be discussing this on Wednesday - subject to members' agreement. How many times have you disposed of a household good that is serviceable but no longer needed and yet unsellable. The Preen challenge may be a local answer to that. It might even save a trip to a (ssssh) civic amenity site not in this local authority area...
The Preen Community Challenge was launched at Central Bedfordshire Council on Monday 12 March. For those Parishes that did not have the opportunity to register, they are extending the registration process until the end of April.
The Preen Community Challenge – generates community funding, reduces waste and helps local people in need. Each town and parish will compete for a share of over £27,500 worth of prizes which can be used to support good causes or community ventures where you live. Every town or parish that signs up will win something and there are big prizes for the best efforts. Every community, however large or small, has an equal chance of winning the cash awards. All you have to do is encourage your residents to take part.
To join the Preen Community Challenge, please return your Parish/Town registration form, along with your feedback questionnaire and order form. For further information, please contact Kathy Lewis on 07971 317757 email Kathy.lewis@preencic.org or visit www.reusematters.com.
