- talking to local groups about recycling
- displaying posters on local notice boards
- putting on a cooking demonstration with recipe tips for using up left-overs
- helping out at a swap shop

The Recycling Team will provide you with lots of help and support, including:
- joint visits to recycling facilities to explain the issues around contamination
- regular newsletters
- champion meetings and socials
- a recycling information pack
- training and induction
