COMMUNITY groups still have time to apply for a scheme that sees them covered for muck.
The company that handles the borough’s waste, re3, makes compost from residents’ garden cuttings.
This is on sale to the public from its recycling centres in Longshot Lane, Bracknell, and Smallmead in Reading.
And, as part of re3’s Community re3Grow scheme, 5,000 40 litre bags of compost are available for community groups in Bracknell Forest, Reading and Wokingham boroughs.
The closing date for applications is the end of July, with the sacks delivered during August.
Groups need to demonstrate a benefit to the community, and be able to communicate re3 principles such as recycling.
Bags are not available for schools, colleges, universities, and similar organisations.
