Charity aiming to cut the amount of waste that Bournemouth and Poole residents throw away or send to be recycled, whilst simultaneously benefitting local charities, educational and community organisations, and artists. In November of 2016 we were awarded Charitable Status by the Charities Commission. We are very excited about our organisation and what we plan to achieve. Over the next five years w
e aim to register as a charity and will continue to take action on ideas from local people. Our first project in 2014 was Win-on-Waste – Canford Heath, funded by the Borough of Poole’s Green Initiative Grant. Following on from that we expanded our We Need That recycling directory into Bournemouth thanks to funding from the Green Goals Community Fund. We heard at the end of October that we have been successful in our bid to the Poole Communities Fund 2014 (administered by Dorset Community Foundation) which will fund us to run Win-on-Waste – Creekmoor.
