Give & Take FREE Event

22 June 2024 - Hackney

Do you have items that are in great condition but need a new home? Fix a bike?

A poster in green and orange. Text: Give and Take - free toys and books. Saturday 22 June 2024 form 11am till 3pm. Shacklewell Primary school e8 2ea.

There will also be a possibility to fix your broken item or have your bicycle checked. If your kettle, curler, or toaster doesn’t work as it should you can book a repair. For all of you who would like to repair clothing items (change a zipper, alter the length of your trousers, or fix a ripped pocket in your favourite jacket…) you have the chance to do so too! Please remember that the repairs might take some time so it’s better to be there earlier.

 

  • Reuse and repair pop-up events allow you to:
    • donate items you don’t need
    • take items you need
    • book to repair clothes
    • free Dr.Bike session – first come, first serve
    • book an electrical item repair
    • donate your reusable laptop

For more information on items that you can donate to the Give & Take repairable items, and booking to repair electrical items, please visit Hackney’s Zero Waste Hub HERE

The Environmental Impact

These events divert hundreds of kilograms of unwanted goods from landfills and incineration, instead finding happy new homes with the people who take them.

Come to the wonderful money-free event we host in partnership with Hackney Council. Bring along any unwanted items that are clean and in good condition or come and take any toys and books ALL FOR FREE at our big community Give & Take.
