South Norfolk Council is hosting a special reuse and recycling event on July 31 for Wymondham residents.

The event is set to take place at Kett’s Park Community and Recreation Centre from 10am to 2pm.

Residents can recycle unwanted electrical items and textiles and take home donated items in good working order.

Keith Kiddie, South Norfolk Council’s cabinet member for the environment, said: “This event is a win-win for our community.

“It’s a chance to clear out your cupboards, pick up some pre-loved goods, and make a real difference to the environment.

“By reusing and recycling, we’re cutting waste, supporting local people, and giving quality items a second life.

“I’d encourage everyone to come along and get involved.”

People can donate small electricals like kettles and toasters, and textiles such as clothes and shoes.

From noon to 2pm, the items will be available for others to take free of charge.

Unclaimed items will be donated to the Big C Cancer Charity.
