Hi All
Janauary 2012 sees the start of a huge give and take event taking place in Acton.
The event has been organised by a charity called Healthy Planet and builds on their Books for Free programme.
Watch the bbc news feature on the event:

Healthy Planet were given the use of this location for only 60 days and as a result decided to do the biggest give and take event ever seen in this massive warehouse on The Vision business park in Acton.
From 12 to 22 January residents and businesses alike brought along unwanted items that are still in good enough condition for others to want and use including books,furniture, gadgets and other household items.
This included both working and broken electrical items, thanks to DHL Envirosolutions, who will take away all the broken electrical equipment to be recycled.
Then from today until sunday 29 January from 9am until 3pm, anyone can come along and take items they want, for free.
Green charity Healthy Planet is running the events to raise awareness of environmental issues and reduce the amount of unwanted goods going to landfill.
Come along tomorrow or sunday between 9-3pm and take anything you want for free.
WHERE:The Vision Warehouse 15, Kendal Avenue, Acton W3 0AF
Nearest Tube: Park Royal and West Acton are both
just a 10 minute walk from the Warehouse.
