It is often said that when it comes to ecology, it is the children who set the example for the parents. Claudine, a retiree from Boulogne who is very up to date on environmental issues, will not contradict us. ” It was my daughter who gave me the idea of launching this group of donations between individuals on Facebook. For her part, she created her own in Calais and it works very well! »
Claudine duplicated the model in Boulogne two years ago by becoming administrator of the “Recup’Boulogne-sur-Mer” page on Facebook.
Objective: give away what we get rid of to avoid throwing away and make people happy while giving objects a second life.
In this case, in this group, these are furniture and appliances which are at the top of the donation charts. ” Often people give broken coffee makers, kettles, computers because they think it will cost more to repair. “, continues our recycling enthusiast. ” However, when you are a bit of a handyman, you can find the fault and it is a saved device! »
She herself gave a private individual a TV that no longer turned on. “
The gentleman who came to pick it up managed to fix it. He even gave me a quick phone call to tell me! »
You have to be quick!
The friendliness of the members of this page does not prevent Claudine from establishing some rules to follow. « We must not give away animals and we must not collect things to resell them.
»
For the rest, the management of the page by the administrator does not require a lot of time. ” I still take a look every night, if only to accept requests from new subscribers “says Claudine.
For their part, candidates for “recovery” must be quick. ” It is rare that the objects to give stay more than a day on the page, generally it goes very quickly
