Charity Bins 2022

[Dukeicon]

The Bin crew are doing the charity bins again this year.

Quote

GLASTONBURY 2022!

As per tradition, we'll be painting personalised bins for anyone kind enough to make a donation to CARE International. In 2019 we raised over £4400, helping save the lives of thousands of people, let's try and beat that figure this year, do something great and sponsor your very own Glastonbury bin!

Make sure to leave what you want painted on your bin and your name in the comment, and to leave your contact details in the correct boxes in case we need to get in touch (Read below for rules)

•  There are 100 guaranteed charity bins in easy to find locations for those who make the minimum donation
•  £40 donation - Guaranteed bin + tweet and instagram of your bin and where to find it
•  under £40 donation - All efforts will be made to get your bin done, but will be once the others have been finished
•  £40+ Skip to the front of the queue!
•  Try & refrain from sending photos of people/pets, they will be done but don't forget that we have 14,000 bins to paint, so it may have to be rushed and look naff!
•  No swear words or telephone numbers, no paragraphs!
•  Requests must be family friendly (no distressing scenes, no sexual anything, no Boris Johnson)
•  You cannot request your bin to be in a specific area, bins are sometimes moved around after painting.

I’ve just done this. Brilliant! Thank you. 

We call one of my mates ‘The Wonky Camel’. He was originally just ‘The Camel’ but then… well, you know 😂

So he now has a bin.

Tempted to get this done:

Great idea this, just copped one for a friend! It's their first Glasto, gonna surprise them with it when we get on site.

Just came to post, and beaten to it, good work @Dukeicon.  100 bins, and 20 gone in the first couple of hours!

Just done ours.  Here's ours from the last festival!

Brilliant, just done one for my mate who is a first timer!

Tis a great thing having your own bin and then going to track it down 😊

[giantkatestacks]

Done. Thanks for the thread.

[Neville Street]

Thanks for the reminder, enjoyed hunting ours down in previous years 🙂

[Skier68]

Done,

Good fun in 2019 spending the Wednesday afternoon hunting all round William's Green for it!

Target broken, and looks like only a couple of bins left if people are interested

Bumping to see if anyones had a picture from Dan yet? Seeing the bins going out made me find my picture from 2017

Not heard anything yet, I didn’t know we would though. Did they send you a pic of your bin before the fest?

I think it was posted to Instagram. I don’t use Instagram, but I think it got posted there and my wife saw it in 2017. The caption said where it had been placed, but caveat that they can end up shuffled about. This one was outside WG on the side by the venue but close to the track.

Never found this one in 2015, despite pretty accurate location, but it was muddy around that area and lots of bins had been moved.

Not seen a peep yet! He's on site, but haven't heard about buns yet.

For buns I highly recommend the bakery near WG. 😁

[Glast0baby]

I think i managed to get my request in on time.  Really excited for the unique scavenger hunt of trying to find it!  Do update this topic if/when bin photos go up on Instagram!   Very exciting stuff!

[Gnomicide]

I'm told they're in William’s Green. 

[Gnomicide]

Apologies it's the Facebook one but at least it's proof some exist.

[gigpusher]

They usually only contact you once they have been moved into position as they give you a rough location.

Yep. Someone on site found it and sent me a picture.
