Where does the money go?
All of the money donated through membership is used for our practical projects to make our community more sustainable and a greener place to live.
£5 pays for....2 brake cables for a bike that's been saved from landfill; a handfull of bulbs for the Nurture Nature garden at Dobson Lane; or a box of cuppa soup for volunteers working in the winter.
£10 pays for...one week's room hire for a food co-op; or sets of outer and inner tubes for two bicycles that could help a family reduce their car usage.
£20 pays for...a pair of second-hand steel toe-capped boots for a warehouse volunteer; new tyres for an office bicycle so travelling between our sites is easy; or half the price of translating our Re-Useful Centre leaflet into Punjabi so even more of the community can find us.
£50 pays for...a day's training for a manager looking after volunteers; or five week's room hire for one of our food co-ops.

How do I renew my membership?
The easiest way is to set up a Direct Debit (the form is on the new member leaflet). That way we can renew your membership for you automatically every year. If that's not for you, then you can post a cheque or pay direct into our bank account (email eleanor@action21.co.uk for more details). We'll try to send you a reminder once your membership is up for renewal.
What's an Eco-Ranger?
Eco-rangers are our junior and teen members. They get:
- £5 book voucher to spend at either the Re-Useful Centre or the Recycle Warehouse
- Badge/keyring and a certificate
- Green Passport
- Newsletter at least twice a year, jam-packed full of info and things to do
- Free entry to events like the pumpkin day and eco days
If you're in an eco-club at school, why not get together with your friends and all become Eco-Rangers? You can send in your stories, photos and tips and we'll publish them in the next edition of the newsletter. It could be the start of a brilliant eco-career! Become an eco-ranger today!
