Families Waste £50 of Food Every Month
Wallisdown residents are being encouraged to think about how much food they throw out as national figures show the average family wastes £50 of food a month.
In Bournemouth a massive 38 per cent of all rubbish thrown in the Little Bin (refuse) is food and the Council’s Recycling Team is encouraging residents to think more about food waste to help reduce the amount and save money too. The Council is supporting the ‘Love Food Hate Waste’ campaign urging people to think about how they use shop, store and cook food items they buy.
Visiting Molly's Den
Molly's Den, set over 16000 square ft over 2 floors, is a new retail & trade warehouse where you will find all kinds of unique treasures you won’t find on the high street.
We loved the eclectic mix inside and could easily spend an afternoon rooting through to find a hidden gem. Inside is an impressive collection of retro furniture, vintage clothing, records, collectables, antiques and much more. There is everything from shabby chic to random Retro. Browse for gifts, jewellery, furniture have a bite to eat and a coffee in Molly's Kitchen.
There are also monthly outdoor fairs.
