Purple Upcycling Scheme

https://www.p-c-f.org/wp-content/uploads/2017/03/video-1490913232.mp4

upcycle

ˈʌpsʌɪk(ə)l/
verb
gerund or present participle: upcycling
  1. reuse (discarded objects or material) in such a way as to create a product of higher quality or value than the original.

As many of you know we have an ongoing recycling scheme which we now prefer to call ‘upcycling’ as we think this is a far more fitting description for the project.  We always have and continue to collect ring pulls from drinks cans but we have had a few changes recently to the things we are collecting so we wanted to keep you all up to date with those and ask you to share this with your collection teams.

PLEASE COLLECT:

Ring Pulls from Drinks Cans

Mens Ties

Leather & Canvas Belts

DO NOT COLLECT:

Ring Pulls from Food Tins

Toothpaste Tubes*

Crisp Packets

Bottle Labels

 

*If you have existing collections of toothpaste tubes we can accept those up until October of this year.

New Products Coming SoonWe are excited to be producing new products in our livelihood projects so keep your eye on our online shop.

Posters to encourage collections can be downloaded from our resource library.

If you have any further questions or require any further information just give us a shout  e: info@p-c-f.org  t: 01489 790 219

Happy Collecting!
