The idea
We will divert reusable household items and bikes from landfill through e-cargobike collections. Household items will be taken to charity shops etc. and bikes upcycled for donation via Refugee Action. Additional environmental benefits in terms of reduced CO2 emissions and traffic will accrue through using e-cargo bikes rather than vans.
