Matters
At present
local people are forced to travel as far away as the Northern General
to recycle their waste, there are no sites in Burngreave.
A new enterprise
on Spital Hill, Recycling Matters, aims to address this problem
when the shop opens as a recycling information and waste advice
centre this summer.
“What
we need now is volunteer help to work with staff on the interior
of the shop,” explained Nicola – present co-ordinator
of the new team. Funded by New Deal, the information bureau aims
to increase our sense for recycling in Burngreave by giving advice,
assistance and information on recycling and disposal matters.
“We will
help people become aware of sustainable living and provide training
in waste management, domestic composting and also a Credit Union
collection point.” added new worker Mick Ashman.
“We also
want people’s suggestions for recycling sites.” added
one of his colleagues. To make any suggestions for this or any Recycling
Matters, telephone 275 5055 or 0776 398
2406.
