Community Fridges are a brilliant idea.
The #communityfridge network is also a brilliant example of why charities matter. And what we can do when we collaborate and provide a way for the British public to do something for the causes they care about.
Love it.
🥚🍎🥔🍌 We have now opened a #CommunityFridge in Bexleyheath and Belvedere thanks to the support of environmental charity @hubbubUK. The fridges can be found at @belvederecentre and Bostall Community Library. Find out more here 👉 ow.ly/mv9550viejV

Don't turn off the news if all the negativity is making you miserable. Try constructive journalism which reports on responses to problems - says @SeanDaganWood in @theipaper - and he's got plenty of examples of solutions-focused stories inews.co.uk/news/media/news-…
