I just had to come and write a blog about a magical place ive just been to called the Cone exchange.
http://www.coneexchange.org/
This is a paragraph taken from the website just to give you a taster of what its all about
How it works:
In short, people bring me their unwanted stuff and I put it to good use – like reselling it as craft material and using the proceeds to support our Yorkshire Rainforest Project. Or by collecting things like mobile phones, spectacles, stamps, holiday change and even printer cartridges, then giving them to charities like Oxfam who use them to raise money.
I bought loads of goodies from boxes, card to some fab material. It is nearlly time to be getting ready for the C word isnt it? only 224 day to go!!
