FrowResource CIO is a charity created to support the community of Forest Row to reduce waste and grow a thriving circular economy. We aim to use progressive recycling strategies to rethink our consumption. Our intention is to fill the gap left by the 2018 closure of the Forest Row tip by offering residents local options for managing unwanted materials.
Our objectives include:
-
creating a zero-waste community
creating local employment and apprenticeships
providing financial support to local initiatives to the village
contributing to village retail and community life
raising awareness about waste and how we can collectively reduce it
