Recycling!

We have some very passionate supporters who recycle their own rubbish to help both the environment and our charity continue our work. If you'd like to contribute to their collections they would be grateful for your support - as would we!

Terracycle is an innovative recycling company that has become a global leader in recycling typically hard-to-recycle waste. Terracycle offer people the opportunity to be collect certain waste and send it to them to be recycled. All products they collect are not recyclable by your regular council bin collection, so any items sent are saved from going into landfill. Terracycle clean and melt the waste into hard plastic that can be remolded to make new recycled products. You can find out more about the finished products at www.protecttheplanet.co.uk

As an incentive, they donate to charity for every item received too. Since 2013 they have donated thousands of pounds to Kicks Count because of the supporters who fundraise by recycling!
