Our Mission:
Sustainable Shrivenham exists to inspire, support and empower our local community to make more sustainable choices in everyday life.
We aim to make sustainability practical, affordable and accessible to everyone by providing the knowledge, skills, opportunities and shared resources people need to make a positive difference.
Through community projects, education, collaboration and practical initiatives such as The Hub and the Repair Cafe, we want to help reduce waste, make better use of resources, encourage reuse and sharing, and create a healthier, more sustainable future for our community.
We believe that small changes, made together, can make a big difference.
What we’ve been up to since 2019…
Big Differences
We were delighted to be included in a short documentary by a local Student, Molly who wanted to share stories about people making an environmental difference in their local community.
60%
of rubbish that ends up in the rubbish bin could be recycled
73%
less air pollution is created when making recycled paper than manufacturing it from raw materials
13%
of edible food and drink purchased in households in the UK is wasted
Never doubt that a small group of thoughtful, committed, citizens can change the world. Indeed, it is the only thing that ever has
- Margaret Mead
