Talking Rubbish

Times are changing and so are the recycling rules. This means more items can be recycled through household collections than before.

This is great for our planet but it will have a negative effect on our fundraising.

We are no longer able to send in soft plastics which is a great loss to our fund.

We need your help more than ever with the items that we can still raise money on.

Here are the last two boxes of soft plastics and bakery packaging off to the depot.

I will update you all with what we can still accept in the next post
