There’s a belief that the tents left behind are taken by charities and given to homeless or those who need them. This has been debunked by organisers time and time again as not being true.
It used to be true. My scout troop, amongst others , was allowed to go in and take anything they could find, tents, chairs, beers etc, before the rest was sent to landfill.
