The ScrapStore at EKM

Our GOLD project also run The ScrapStore @ East Kent Mencap! The ScrapStore @ East Kent Mencap is an exciting green initiative that looks to reduce waste in Thanet.

The ScrapStore encourages people to reduce, reuse and recycle by taking in safe, clean ‘scrap’ craft products so that re-usable items are saved from landfill. The craft supplies are sold at affordable prices for others to use to get creative.

It is run by members of East Kent Mencap who have a learning difficulty, and all art supplies have been donated. Find out more here.

GOLD is funded by the National Lottery through the Big Lottery Fund
