On Green Friday, you can meet our environmental coaches at Kringloop Gorinchem. Here you can ask questions on how to reduce waste at home, sort raw materials properly or offer them separately. Green Friday is the sustainable version of Black Friday. This day is not about buying new stuff but about creatively reusing and recycling stuff. Less waste means less CO2 emissions. This is good for the environment as well as your wallet.

Kringloop Gorinchem is organising sustainable activities on Green Friday. These include various demonstrations by customers and volunteers showing what they make from and with their recycling purchases. The cycle will also show what they themselves do to reduce waste. Join a guided tour at 11am or 2pm where you will get a unique look behind the scenes. You will see how the charity shop accepts and sorts items and you may even take a look in the 'secret' work warehouse. Come along and get inspired during Green Friday! Together, we will make a difference.

• Intro text: Swapping toys instead of buying them: a smart choice for St Nicholas. Give toys a new life during the swap market on 14 November.
• Municipality: Gorinchem
• Street and house number: Dukatenplein 2
• Place: Gorinchem
• Location: Rozenobel neighbourhood centre

With Sinterklaas in sight, Waardlanden and the LimonadeBrigade are organising a toy exchange market on Thursday 14 November in community centre Rozenobel in Gorinchem. A great opportunity to give unused toys a new life and to celebrate Sinterklaas in an environmentally friendly and inexpensive way.

With this toy exchange market, we will make the Sinterklaas party not only inexpensive, but also more sustainable. In many households, many toys remain unused while still in good condition. By swapping these toys, other children can be made happy and fewer new items need to be bought. This reduces waste, packaging, the use of new raw materials, time and purchasing stress.

How does it work?

You can hand in good, clean and complete toys at:

• Friday 8 November during the Parent-Child walk-in in community centre Rozenobel at Dukatenplein 2 in Gorinchem
• Thursday 14 November between 18:15 and 19:00, just before the swap meet

For each toy handed in, you will receive vouchers. With these, you can pick out other toys during the swap party on 14 November, from 19:15 to 20:00. Even if you only want to donate without swapping, you are welcome.

Free sustainable wrapping sheet for the first 50 visitors

The first 50 visitors who exchange toys will receive a free wrapping sheet from the municipality of Gorinchem. This sustainable wrapping sheet is made from leftover textile by circular craft house De Gezel. So you can wrap your gifts sustainably time after time - without extra waste.

A celebration of sharing

Toys left over after the swap market go to the Toy Bank. Then other children can also enjoy them and the Sinterklaas party becomes more sustainable and beneficial for everyone. Please note that books and soft toys will not be accepted or exchanged.
