Welcome to The Charity Shop Gift Card’s blog, where we strive to promote sustainable living and inspire positive change within our communities. We wanted to create a place where you can hopefully find events happening near you that align with your interests and lifestyle! So, every month, we’ll be sharing a directory of sustainability-focused events that are happening throughout the UK. We’ll be putting a slightly condensed version on our Instagram each month but our blog is the place to be for the full list! The blogpost will be updated throughout the month as more events are brought to our attention so feel free to bookmark the page and keep checking back! And if you’re organising an event that you think we should know about for upcoming posts, please feel free to to drop us a DM on our Instagram.
(Note: Please note that due to the dynamic nature of events, we recommend verifying the dates, times, and locations of each event before attending.)
