Blankenberge is joining the challenge to become Kringkampioen 2026. From October 17 to October 31, Flemish municipalities will compete for this title. The task is to collect as many kilograms of reusable items per inhabitant as possible. One municipality per province will be crowned Kringkampioen.
Residents are urged to look through their homes for items they no longer use and that deserve a second life. These can be brought to the Kringwinkel (second-hand shop). Large items can be collected for free. Every kilogram counts, and the more residents participate, the greater the chance of winning the title.
The competition is an initiative of Kringwinkel, which celebrates 25 years of reuse this year. The call to action is: 'Together we go for gold. Let the battle begin!'
