items for disposal: free to good homes

UPDATE: The disposal project ended on Monday 10th September 2012. I don't know the disposition of what was left but SCC have said to me they are grateful for my efforts to contact the many community groups who benefited. 

Note: there may be another school furniture clearance early in 2013 and they will let me know. 

Since the reorganisation of Suffolk's schools structure, a great deal of school equipment and furniture has been shipped to Halesworth for disposal, including by free distribution to Suffolk community organisations. The contact person is Joy Stodart, tel 07515 190911.

A few local organisations have been able to select items already but there is a lot of stuff and not all of it is sorted yet and there is more to come so these photos are just a flavour. If you are interested, don't delay in contacting Joy to have a look. There's far too much stuff to list but a rule of thumb: if you might find it in a school, it's probably there.
