By their very nature, events can be very wasteful, and Event Cycle is a charity that takes unwanted event waste and gives it a second life – a sustainable solution with a lasting social legacy.

With a commitment to repurposing and giving back to communities, Event Cycle distributes items donated or left behind by events held at ICC Wales amongst charities, community groups and social enterprises, ensuring they find a new purpose for them in Wales rather than see them go to waste.

Four deserving organisations have been recent recipients of these items: YMCA’S Young Carers Project received tote bags, vanity mirrors and juggling balls, St Vincent’s Charity Shop received display equipment. The Pantri received notepads, polo shirts, lanyards, mugs and puffer gilets, and the community owned Albert Hall in Llandrindod Wells received a sound mixing desk, speaker and coffee cups.

By diverting these resources from landfill and connecting them with organisations that serve the community, the ICC Wales and Event Cycle prove that sustainability and community support can go hand in hand.
