Join the network: half-price membership for new members

We’re not quite sure just where the time has gone, but we are now officially halfway through the membership year! It’s been an incredibly busy 6 months for the network with huge amounts of change taking place in such a short space of time. As always, our network members have been successful in managing this change and have garnered some great achievements as the country slowly made its way out of lockdown. 

Half-price membership for new members

To mark this 6 month point, we are excited to be launching half-price membership for the next 6 months for organisations who would like to join the network. Your organisation can become a member of the Reuse Network for just £125 + VAT or £75 + VAT for small charities (turnover less than £100,000) between now and March 2022. 

We understand the importance of seeking out a network with shared values and missions and this introductory offer of half price membership for 6 months is an opportunity to join the network and see what it is about, meet with like-minded organisations, access the benefits available to members and find out what other organisations have been doing over the past year. As well as this, you will have the chance to attend the Reuse Network Annual Conference which is taking place in person this year on 11 November at the Chesford Grange Hotel in Kenilworth, Warwick, for a discounted rate.

What our members say

At Reuse Network we are proud to boast a diverse network encapsulating small volunteer-run charities to larger social enterprises, and everything in between. This is what some of our members had to say about being a member of the Reuse Network: 

“We are such a small project so connecting with Reuse Network has been invaluable especially during the COVID-19 pandemic. Reuse Network has helped to keep us updated with all new protocols, and the weekly Zoom calls help with connecting with other re-use projects nationally, as well as sharing good practice. Being part of the Reuse Network gives you a bigger voice.”  –  Janet Fox, Hopeworx Re-use Centre Manager

“Waste Not Want Not (WNWN) has been a member of the Reuse Network (RN) since WNWN first became operational in 2002. Over the years the RN have been a tremendous source of help and support. The staff have always been friendly and approachable and have a wealth of knowledge on all things connected to reuse sector and some things that aren’t!” – Phile Reade, Waste Not Want Not Manager
