🌍 We were delighted to once again sponsor Skipton Eco Day, helping to make it a free event for the local community to attend, learn, and discover ways to support the planet while making a real difference locally. 💚
☀️ With the sun shining and the doors wide open in Skipton, the event saw a fantastic turnout. It was inspiring to see so many people visiting throughout the day, sharing ideas, asking questions, and engaging with sustainability initiatives. 🙌
👕♻️ One of the highlights was our hugely successful clothes swap, encouraging reuse and reducing waste. Delivered by Beyondly volunteers, the swap gave pre-loved clothes a second life while helping visitors refresh their wardrobes sustainably. 🤝 We were proud to partner with the local Skipton Oxfam shop, ensuring any unclaimed items were donated for continued use after the event.
🛍️ The response was incredible:
✨ People arrived with bags full of clothes to donate
✨ Families left with "new-to-them" outfits
✨ Visitors returned after enjoying last year's swap
✨ Lots of first-time participants joined in too
♻️ We were also thrilled to be alongside RECOUP and North Yorkshire Council who we are collaborating with to support the Craven area recycling campaign that Beyondly is collaborating on💡 Many local residents stopped by their stand to learn how they can increase recycling, reduce contamination, and play their part in creating a more circular future.
A huge thank you to everyone who attended, donated, swapped, volunteered, and helped make the day such a success. Together, small actions can create meaningful change. 🌱
