LAWR

More than a dozen community projects that are working to cut food waste, and recycle or reuse everything from textiles to furniture have been selected to spearhead a £180,000 initiative across Merseyside and Halton. The winners of Merseyside Recycling and Waste Authority and Veolia Environmental Services 2014 Community Fund have been recently announced, with six Merseyside-wide schemes each receiv- ing up to £20,000 to put their ideas in to action. The 'Faiths4Change's Innovative Sew Many Trees' project has been awarded £19,980 and will work with 24 community groups across the region to develop sewing skills and encourage reuse and repair of clothes and textiles helping to divert textiles from landfill. One key part of the project will be to create a 'textile forest' of decora- tive trees that will form part of a public artwork. The 'Community Action Wirral's Donate and Create Change' project has been given £19,980 and will give local groups who would not normally be able to afford to rent retail space to have their own 'charity shop for a week'. The initiative will help a range of groups to raise funds by selling pre-loved goods and ensure that resources are recycled and reused. Emmaus Merseyside's Recycling Superstore has been awarded £14,500 to support their newly opened 'Superstore' in Seaforth that actively works with homeless people and gets them involved in recy- cling and reusing unwanted goods which are then sold to the public. The grant will be used to encourage members of the public to get involved by volunteering and donating goods. Neighbourhood Services Co. has been given £18,618 for a project, based at Larkin's Farm in Croxteth. The grant will help the project create a new environmentally-friendly education facility reusing waste wood and will also offer school visits to the farm. Other projects awarded funding include 'Bulky Bob's Fresh Start' and 'Children's Food Trust Mersey Waste Munchers'. In the money!
