The Aldbury Village Website
Reduce, Reuse, Repair, Recycle
Aldbury is already a busy hub of recyclers, food sharers, pond diggers, and EV enthusiasts.
Our projects are aimed at helping people build a more sustainable lifestyle and come together as a community. Check out our projects below!
Food sharing
IN DEVELOPMENT
We are looking to set up a food sharing scheme to combat food waste in our community. We will provide households with boxes to deposit their surplus food/home produce to place outside their homes.
Repair café
IN DEVELOPMENT
We are looking for volunteers to offer their skills and expertise to help run a repair café in the village. Repair services will be dependant on volunteers available but could include bike repairs, sewing, restringing guitars, furniture repairs, leatherwork, etc.
Recycling
IN DEVELOPMENT
Ideas: improve better labelling, set up more recycling bins, organise a monthly bulky item pick up, exploring options for larger composting facilities for the village community.
Community fridge

We are looking for volunteers to help set up a community fridge in the village. A community fridge would be a space to share surplus household food or home produce and anyone in the village would be welcome to take items from the fridge for free. help us combat food waste in the village.

We are looking to set up a group who can manage the sharing of equipment such as ladders, drills, saws, leaf blowers, mowers, etc.
