Recycling for Charity.

Our Community Energy group SHARE joined the Terracycle, recycling program, in 2019, to save items from being incinerated, and raise money for charities. Thanks to the manufacturers sponsoring the different programmes.

Our running total raised is over £ 20,000 for charity our main charity is KICKS COUNT, who aim to reduce UK stillbirths plus we’ve supported many local charities, schools and good causes. THANK YOU EVERYONE !! Amazing we can raise this sort of money on items usually thrown away, but can be made into new products like picnic tables. Thanks to TERRACYCLE.

20 May 2025 Ribbon cutting
Children of Brunel school, Saltash, excited by their new playground, Thanks to our Recycling for Charity project who won a NATIONAL CONTEST. The playground is made in part from old food storage containers and reusable drinks bottles collected across our catchment area. Over one tonne of these items was boxed up by our volunteers and sent to TerraCycle to be processed. Thank you everyone that had a declutter and donated items to us.
In addition, based on the shipments we sent, Sistema, the sponsor, has donated £1699 to KICKS COUNT our nominated charity, who aim to reduce UK stillbirths. An absolutely amazing result.
Join in the Recycling excitement and help us make money for charities from household items normally thrown away. Manufacturers, WARBURTON, MCVITIES, CATHEDRAL CHEESE, MARIGOLDS, and others dictate what we can send to be recycled and raise money for charity and good causes.
