It's good when people get together + collaborate. It's good to fix stuff, rather than chuck it away + it's good to save ££. Inclusive

#Leeds bin collections are changing for many in the coming months. Great to be working with local charity St Luke's CARES on this #upcycling competition, to promote awareness on #recycling, as part of our 'Save Money, Save the Planet' campaign. Cash prizes. Entries by Fri 3 Nov.

There are people doing brilliant #community stuff, behind the scenes, across #Leeds. Today, Alfie here in #Beeston got a refurbed laptop for free, via DAWYorks, to help him prepare for his GCSEs. Thanks to all who made this possible (+ they always welcome new volunteers + tech).

Great news: The European Parliament has just passed the right to repair. This is a huge win for consumers and an important step towards reducing waste and a more sustainable future 💚🌍💚

Hey NORTHERN 🚆 pls can you update your staff on making disabled customers feel welcome? The guard on my train has said “you’ve picked a bad time to come everyone will be getting on at Leeds” and “I’ll try and get to you getting off”. Not very comforting… 🫣

Right then! We're underway at #meanwood and we've got this kite conundrum - we think it's a foil kite cos it's got no poles, but do we just reattach the string in the middle of that white cord..? No answers on a postcard please, hoping to get it fixed today if possible 🛠️🪁

Should diversity be a tick-box exercise? I have a think about this in my latest blog post… 🤔 gemturner.com/blog/should-di…

Repair news has been a bit of a mixed bag in 2023. We’ve seen some great steps forward in Right to Repair laws around the world, but at the same time, some huge manufacturers seem to be regressing. Dig into it all at the link below! bit.ly/3tqPhqd — #iFixit

Lovely moment just now. Two of the first people we helped when we first set up Solidaritech are now working for IT companies, and they just stopped by with 20 donated machines to help us help more people. Pay it forward, people. #TechnologyForEveryone

Whoop. Seagulls Paint are brilliant, + they're just about to become even more brilliant, because they're moving to south #Leeds. If people can help them with the move this Saturday (18 May), that'd be grand. Full details at: southleedslife.com/seagulls-paint….
