At Seaside Scavenge, our vision is a world where nothing goes to waste and we pursue this through hosting fun and unique programs that encourage and empower people to reimagine waste as a resource.
At our events, the litter collected from local waterways and parklands becomes a currency in a pop-up market to purchase pre-loved clothes and goods that have been donated by the local community. Alongside performances by live, local musicians there are talks and stalls hosted by local community groups working in waste reduction and environmental conservation, as well as prizes up for grabs from local businesses.
Since 2015 we have delivered over 90 events in 57 communities, educated 10,308 participants about waste as a resource and removed 15,133 kg of litter and 228,000 butts from the environment. Our trash for cash market has given a second lease on life to 11,718 kg of pre-loved goods and we have engaged over 550 businesses and 320 community groups on the journey.
