Shots Fans Encouraged To Recycle And Reuse

Last updated : 17 June 2010 By Mike Wray

Recycle Week aims to raise awareness of recycling and reuse and encourage people to waste less in order to reduce the amount of waste which goes to landfill.

This year, Recycle Week is focusing on small electrical and electronic equipment such as kettles, irons, hairdryers, electronic games, CD players and drills which people do not always realise can be recycled or reused.

Recycle Week's official website has tied up with the British Heart Foundation to encourage people to bring electrical and electronic equipment which is still in good working order to their Aldershot store where it can be resold in order to raise funds for this worthwhile cause.

Commenting on this initiative, Jane Hall from Recycle Now said: "The focus for this year's Recycle Week are the benefits of reuse as well as recycling.

"The British Heart Foundation offer a home for unwanted electrical and electronic equipment that is in good working order and it would be great if Aldershot fans could donate items to their local shop."
