Cancellation of collection of milk bottle tops
Milk bottle top collection
The trustees are very disappointed to report that they have had to stop the collection of milk bottle tops for recycling. Companies that were initially contacted with a view to take the tops for recycling are no longer able to help us. It appears that the trustees were fed conflicting information regarding the recycling of these tops. Over a ton of tops have been collected and the trustees are very grateful for the support of everyone, schools, businesses, individuals, groups etc. who have collected the tops on their behalf. One firm has kindly agreed to take the tops off our hands and for this we are very grateful.
Charity Abseil off Derriford Hospital
