Zero Waste Scotland's Pass it on Week 2015 image #1

Pass it on Week 2015 is 7th to 15th March. It’s a week dedicated to encouraging people to get involved in re-use activity of all shapes and sizes. It could be swapping, sharing, repairing, upcycling or buying second hand

Online resources

All resources are on the Pass it on Week website for you to make use of.

Register your event

Before the week begins you can register your event on the Pass it on Week website. Events will be listed on the Pass it on Week website, so that people can browse for events happening in their area, so listing your event here means more people will know about it. Even if your event isn’t open to the public, this is a great way to show that your organisation is supporting the week.

People will be directed to the events section to find something local to get involved in, in all of the press and media work, so make sure it’s listed as soon as possible. Listed events will be promoted on social media and via local press releases as well.
