The Don't Ditch It project at Lancaster University is a sustainability initiative designed to reduce waste and promote a circular economy on campus.

Each year, between May and September, donation points are set up across the University, allowing students to donate unwanted clothes and household items as they move out of their accommodation. These items - including clothing, kitchenware, books, and more - are then redistributed to local and national charities or resold at a large discount to incoming students, preventing them from ending up in landfill. The project supports environmental sustainability and provides students with opportunities to gain valuable work experience by participating in its operations.
