“WE NEED THAT!”
STOP! Don’t throw that away...
July/August 2017

INTRODUCTION—To Bournemouth and Poole residents The next time you go to throw something away in your rubbish or recycling bins, or take items to the tip, think again. There may be a group or individual who could make use of it.
Please take a look at the list on pages 4 and 5 and see if the item you are throwing away is on it. If it is, look along to see the page number(s) beside it, as this indicates that it is needed by someone. Then go to that page and make contact to arrange delivery or collection.
Important: Ideas2Action accepts no liability or responsibility in relation to the delivery and/or collection of items. Ideas2Action is only facilitating in the brokerage of reusable items.
Please remember to mention that you saw the needs in this directory.
CAN YOU HELP WITH OTHER ITEMS YOU MAY OCCASIONALLY THROW AWAY? On pages 24-26 there are a few voluntary groups looking for other items you may occasionally throw away. So please have a look to see if you can help with these too.
I’D LIKE TO REGISTER FOR ITEMS. WHAT DO I NEED TO DO? As the booklet is updated, it’s never too late to register. So, if you are a member of a group, or simply an individual who can make use of the items in the list, please contact Monique, the project co-ordinator. Phone: 07771 705662 or email contact@ideas2action.org.uk

ACHIEVEMENTS TO DATE We were a finalist in the MRW National Recycling Awards 2016 in the Waste Prevention Award: Public and Third Category. We were also a winner of a Green Apple Award in 2016. There are now six Win on Waste groups running across Bournemouth and Poole, with a new one, Oakdale Win on Waste launching on 23 September. Our first We Need That directory contained a list of 55 items and 20 organisations looking for those items. This issue there are 83 items, 35 organisations and four individuals. Even more people are benefitting from unwanted waste.
COMPANIES AND MEMBERSHIP ORGANISATIONS DOING THEIR BIT Local companies and membership organisations are encouraging their members and fellow employees to save items. These include Brittany Ferries, Poole Lions, The Green Hotel and J.P. Morgan. The Green Team at J.P.Morgan have gone one step further and started their own We Need
That collection called We Want That. They have set up a series of collection bins on site and are encouraging staff to collect and donate items to be given to some of the organisations in this directory. If you would like to do something similar at your place of work, please get in touch with Monique 07771 705662 or email: contact@ideas2action.org.uk
LOCAL GROUPS WHO ALSO RECYCLE Between pages 27 and 29 you’ll see that we have featured two larger voluntary organisations, Dorset Reclaim and the Dorset Scrapstore. Both need your items, so please read about what they are looking for.

SECTION 5 DORSET RECLAIM AND THE DORSET SCRAPSTORE
DORSET RECLAIM Dorset Reclaim is a local charity helping people on lower incomes furnish their homes. From a small start, we now have three depots across Dorset with a team of volunteers and staff ready to help you. Your local depots are at 85 Stanley Road, Springbourne and Didcot Road, Poole. We rely completely on the generous donations from local householders to help other local families. We need a wide selection of items including all types of furniture, large and small electrical items, curtains and crockery to carry out our work—we can even find a home for clothes, bags and shoes. We provide a free collection service to anyone offering good quality items to the project and try to accept anything it takes to make a home. So if you’re suffering from a lack of space, moving to a smaller home, or just having a spring clean, give us a call and help us to help others at the same time. Call us on 01202 773384 (Bournemouth) or 01202 679080 (Poole) or visit our website www.dorsetreclaim.org.uk to find out more.
DORSET SCRAPSTORE
“Inspiring community creativity and saving the planet through crafting!”
Fake limbs and biscuit tins, fabric swatches and cardboard boxes...Dorset Scrapstore wants a world where manufacturing waste doesn’t go to landfill - it becomes a community resource for craft making and crea-tivity. We collect materials donated by industry and make them available to schools, community groups and families as a low cost resource. Our materials are suitable for use in art, craft, education and play. We help the environment by promoting re-use and recycling, and by reducing the amounts going to landfill. Dorset Scrapstore is a registered charity and a non-profit making company. We operate with the help of three part-time employees and a wonderful set of volunteers. Donated materials are stored in our warehouse at Alder Hills, Poole. Our members come in and fill bin-bags with materials for just £7 per bag. Materials include paper, card, sticky-backed plastic, tubing, plastic bottles, fabric and foam, to name just a few of the things in store. Dorset Scrapstore also runs affordable arts and crafts workshops. These cover a range of activities and focus on skill-learning in a fun and friendly group environment.

CALL US ON 07565 577094 EMAIL enquiries@dorsetscrapstore.org.uk RATING SYSTEM IS AS FOLLOWS: 1 – NO GREAT DEMAND – Goes slowly and is not very popular, but we try to keep a small amount in stock. 10 – DESPERATELY IN NEED! – Goes very quickly and we can never satisfy the demand. Ratings are given for colourful things (where appropriate or relevant). Plainer or duller stuff will score slightly less!! General info 1. We are interested in any materials or items that can be used in an art, craft or play context. 2. Materials must be clean and safe 3. The more colourful the better, particularly with regard to paper, fabric and plastics 4. Strange, exotic, and unusual materials are our “grail”! 5. If the scrap is appropriate we can take large quantities and act as distributor to the UK network of 105 scrapstores 6. If you can deliver – great! If not - we can collect. 7. We do not accept any food containers (even if they have been washed out) or electrical equipment. 8. We can take donations of suitable household items (particularly fabrics) but can only accept them if sorted into different types – we cannot accept large bags of mixed scrap types. 9.
