At Red Hill EEC we have a Community Recycling Centre and visitors are asked to dispose of paper, cans, plastic and glass in the appropriate bins.
We convert all our food scraps into compost through two methods, a worm farm and composting. This creates a valuable resource for our gardens.
Please help us be environmentally friendly by:
Reflect … on everything you intend to bring
Refusing ... to buy packaged goods
Reducing ... the amount of packaging you bring
Reusing ... any goods that you can and
Recycling ... all waste materials
