Community groups across the borough are organising different types of sale trails so residents can recycle and reuse items they no longer need by setting up a stall in their garden.
Reusing and recycling helps reduce the impact on the Climate Emergency, allows COVID-19 social distancing to take place, is a great way to get some exercise while exploring those streets in your area you've never visited before while stallholders can get some cash for their clutter.
The 5th Walthamstow Village Jumble Trail is on Sunday 13 September 2020, 12noon – 4pm, so you still have time to gather your unwanted belongings and register for a stall.
A Jumble Trail is like a car boot sale from your front garden. Communities set up stalls in their front gardens and sell bric-a-brac, toys, vintage clothes, cakes or whatever.
Last year there were more than 80 stall holders and hordes of visitors.
The event is open to all residents living in Walthamstow Village and surrounding streets.
There is a boundary marked on the Google Map.
There is a £5 fee to register you stall with the money going to support local projects through the Walthamstow Village Resident’s Association.

Back for its sixth year the Bushwood Yard Sale, Leytonstone, is the ideal opportunity to have a lockdown clear out, set up a stall to sell the thing you don’t want to neighbours and passers-by.
The event is on Sunday 20 September 2020, 11am – 4pm. To get your stall added to the digital map and benefit from the publicity costs just £5 to cover administration.
Any profits will go to the Teenage Cancer Trust, last year the charity received £106 from this event.
Key workers wanting to have a stall can apply for a special discount code on the web site.
