Faringdon will play host to another Swap Shop as one of the inaugural events of Faringdon ECOWEEK.
It follows the tremendously successful previous events when swappers were out in droves, bringing, taking or swapping, all for free.
Visitors saved over 400kg of assorted stuff from landfill, including books, videos, clothing, bric-a-brac and even some rolls of carpet!
There is also the facility to recycle print cartridges, foil, batteries and reading glasses.
The Swap Shops are organised by Faringdon Waste Watchers, part of the volunteer-led Community Action Group network (CAG) that works within Oxfordshire to save resources and reduce the amount going to landfill.
