We want to make our area the best at all things green. Lowestoft High Street and surrounds - the North Lowestoft Heritage Action Zone area
The main themes are:
Reduction - energy use, water use, carbon footprint
Re-Use - and pass it on, sell it on
Repair - by you or a shop or a Men's Shed
Re-purpose - upcycle, find a different use
Recycle - blue bin, green bin, Terracycling, shops and supermarkets
We're focussing on recycling at the start, in particular getting the right things into the right bin. We want to collaborate with organisations and agencies to make a sustained effort at informing and enthusing residents in all things waste - from reducing litter to energy-reduction use in the home, from where to recycle to how to repair. Keeping local businesses and residents informed and up-to-date about what they can do to make the area the best at energy use and the best at carbon reduction. Use It All will have a regular Terracycling Collection Point on the Triangle Market, and in the High Street, and ask local businesses to help by collecting crisp packets and wrappers and the like. Our website www.useitall.og has an interactive Recycle Map where you can easily search for bottle banks, clothing and textiles banks, and much more. It's local. We will add to it as we find new locations. The aim is to make it as comprehensive and accurate as possible. Working with other organisations we aim to have local events on the theme of energy use and carbon reduction, helping raise understanding of Climate Change and how anyone and everyone has to do their bit. We hope it will add to our sense of community. Use It All is a Most Easterly Community Group project. If you would like to support the project or need more information email [email protected]
