Recycling – Let’s Talk Rubbish
Working in partnership with Medway Norse and Medway Council, we rescue tonnes of items from landfill every year, giving them a new purpose and reducing waste.
You can donate items at our large recycling containers located at:
-
Hoath Way
-
Cuxton
-
Capstone.
Please ensure items are suitable for reuse, as disposal costs the charity money that could otherwise support the community.
