Watch Facebook, the CASaV Newsletter and this space for further details of the new Give and Take event which we are planning for early summer 2025 in Stokesley.
Please get in touch if you would like to help organise the event – giveandtake@casav.uk.

A Give and Take event is a community gathering where people bring items they no longer need and take home things that others have donated—for free! It’s a great way to reduce waste, promote reuse, and support a circular economy.
How it Works:
- Give: People drop off unwanted but usable household items (e.g., books, clothes, kitchenware, toys, and more).
- Take: Attendees browse the donated items and take whatever they can use—without any need for direct swaps or money.
- Leftovers: Any unclaimed items will be donated to charity, recycled, or repurposed.
Why Are We Holding a Give and Take Event?
- Reduces landfill waste
- Saves people money
- Strengthens community connections
- Encourages a sharing and circular economy mindset
