There are a huge number of Festivals held every summer across the UK. Some are more environmentally conscious than others, but all of them generate a lot of waste for organisers and expense for festival goers.

The reuse or redistribution of leftover gear at festivals is best left to charities and organsiations which are set up to deal with this, as it involves masses of volunteers, transport and storage and is beyond our scope. The gear is usually directed to the homeless, foreign aid etc.

However, there is no reason why you couldn't do some research on local festivals to you and maybe offer to help or let them use your group to redistribute some of the gear locally.

And, of course, Freegle could be helpful to people BEFORE they go to a festival too, so they don't buy new tents and other things unnecessarily.
