Closing March 21st 2022 - Baby Pouch Recycling Cockermouth

Wow it's been a while.... Nearly 15kg of pouches packed and still some left in the bin. Keep dropping off everyone. It's for a great cause PovertySwap thanks Terracycle for timing the scheme.

Has anyone got a stash of pouches waiting to drop off? Could do with 1-2 kg (but any will do!) for next box. If you're in town and finding it difficult to get out, drop me a line and I could pick up. Keep collecting everyone :-).

Thank you everyone! LOTS of people have been dropping off pouches. I could probably have put 2 8 Kg boxes together, but I chopped up my second box before over-stuffing the first. Keep dropping them off. Every little bit helps - 1. recycling plastic 2. PovertySwap a great local charity. We also had a great time washing the bin in the sunshine.

Still recycling... sent off an amazing 10 Kg last week and my bin is still half full. Could do with a few more to make up next box to 8 Kg. Drop off anytime to big bin on drive. Msg for more details. Thank you everyone!

I've got a great big bin outside my house waiting to be filled.

WOW! Another amazing year of collecting & recycling pouches. This year you recycled more than 4000 baby food pouches which has meant PovertySwap will get a donation of £92 just from dropping your pouches in the bin. THANK YOU EVERYONE!

Bins have moved! Now on left hand side of drive, lined up along the hedge in front of side gate. Keep dropping off! In just about to send my second box under lockdown. Well done everyone!
We are keeping the bin cleaned as often as we can remember (weekly when we do the rest for collections) and there's plenty of space for social distancing. Happy recycling everyone.

WOW! 10 kg of baby pouches wrapped and ready to go. During the Covid-19 outbreak we are being particularly careful and unboxing/boxing and checking the bin regularly and wiping it with MILTON to keep it as virus-free as possible.
