Buy Nothing New Month is a challenge to avoid buying new stuff and instead reuse, repair, borrow or buy second-hand.
It’s the perfect excuse to support charity shops like Lighthouse.
They have 35 locations around Derbyshire & Nottinghamshire which helps to support @ValleyCiDS at the same time !

Every new item we buy comes with an environmental price tag. Could you buy nothing new for just one month?
