Although we have no formal independent certification, as this would involve huge costs, we run our project with a "zero to landfill" policy.
We always try to repair and rehome as much as we can, but inevitably there will be items which we can only use for parts and the remainder has to go somewhere.
Our equipment waste is sorted by material, for example hard plastics, rubbers, mixed metals, aluminium, copper, dead batteries, etc.
Some of those we're able to cash in, which allows us to add funds to the project, and the rest is disposed in to the correct sections at the recycling site by our volunteers.
We're registered with the Environment Agency as a charitable lower tier waste carrier, broker and dealer
Zero to landfill!
