The Children's S.C.R.A.P. Project collect waste from businesses for free eliminating waste sent to landfill and saving money for businesses. Then a health and safty check takes place and materials are displayed in the warehouse for members to take back to their groups for education and play!
Designed like a supermarket, members select materials from shelves and barrels such as fabric, plastic, card, paper, toys, comics, wood off-cuts, office furniture, stationary, etc... All these materials and many more are stored in our warehouse for distribution to schools, playgroups, etc… for use in learning and play…
During 2005, the Children's S.C.R.A.P. Project saved from the landfill 110 tonnes of material collected and distributed between all our member groups to improve thier education and raise awareness of conservation of the environment.
HELP US TO HELP THE COMMUNITY!!!
In 2006 we increased the amount of material we collected to the record figure of 130 tonnes.
In 2007 we were able to increase our collections and expand our collection area due to increased funding so that over 200 tonnes were collected.
