We've all spent a lot more time at home over the past year. It's not much fun for many of us, but it gives us the opportunity to do things we would never do otherwise.

One of these things is to look around and see what we have that we don't use any more, and say "I wonder if someone else could use that".

It's perfect time to give away what we no longer need. It frees up space for us to live, reduces the volume of potentially usable items that are taken to the tip, and gives pleasure to others who receive things that they might not otherwise be able to use and appreciate.

In Valais, La Récup' is the place to go. It's an entirely free website, designed and run by volunteers. All you have to do is take one or two photos, post an ad on the site and wait for someone to reply saying they'd like it.

Come on, do it this week!

  • It reduces waste;
  • It builds community spirit;
  • It helps you and it helps others.
