AGM Fun!
What a spread! Laid on by our Trustees and volunteers to celebrate the sign off of our 2018-2019 Annual Report and Accounts.

30,400 people (est.) from all sectors of the community benefited from our materials through membership, our outreach work or volunteering.
52.6 tonnes (est.) of waste saved from landfill or incineration
663 individual members/member groups attracted to use the Scrapstore's materials
650 days of volunteering donated (regular volunteers, corporate groups, one-off volunteers)
Hazelfest #2 run attracting around 350 people and including 30 local artists/community groups
100 separate murals painted outside the Scrapstore by the local community
2 giant murals commissioned
1 giant upcycled mosaic commissioned and made with the help of around 50 local people
40 separate reuse, upcycling or arts workshops run with 17 other community groups and charities
10 educational tours of the Scrapstore for young people (aged 16-25) undertaken
We also said goodbye, and thank you with lots of gorgeous handmade gifts, to our GM Consultant, Sascha after 6 years of supporting us as a Trustee, volunteer and consultant.
