Crunch time for crisp packet recycling at our centres
|
In a bid to help reduce the amount of crisp packets ending up in landfill, we've signed up to TerraCycle and Walker's partnership crisp packet recycling scheme! That means that all crisp packets consumed at our centres will now be recycled.
We are looking to encourage all schools that use any of our centres to bring empty packets on their visit and we'll recycle them for you!
