Tower Hamlets Council is expanding a scheme to reuse locally reclaimed building materials as part of its climate emergency response. The initiative, creating a 'reuse marketplace', allows for the buying and selling of good quality reclaimed materials such as bricks and kitchen units. Items sourced from public sites, schools, and surplus stock will be utilized for community projects. This effort aims to cut waste, reduce carbon emissions, and foster a circular economy while also enabling cost-effective housing solutions and opportunities for green jobs.
"This initiative not only helps us build more homes in a cost-effective and sustainable way but also opens up new opportunities for green jobs and community engagement."
"The scheme would help cut waste, reduce carbon emissions and create a circular economy."
