Recycling is a big part of what we do. We want to be a green and ethical charity and raise funds to cover our core costs, so every donation we then receive is used to support our beneficiaries through our four themes of support.
This year we’ve started a new commercial recycling partnership with ASTCO who work with charities across the UK to raise funds through static recycling banks. We’ve worked with them to create a brand new design that stands out from the crowd of plain and generic clothing banks to raise as much money as possible.
You can help too! We are always on the lookout for new locations for our clothing banks, some great places to host these include:
Schools
Colleges
Places of Worship
Shops and Supermarkets
Leisure Centres
Petrol Stations
and other workplaces too!
If you would like to help support the green recycling initiatives of a truly local charity and help prevent hundreds of tonnes of clothing going to landfill every year, please get in touch by dropping an email to simon@yctrust.uk or reserving a clothing bank via our form here: Reservation Form
The clothing banks need to be placed outside and are delivered and maintained by our commercial partner ASTCO, so there is nothing for you to do, and there is totally no costs involved with hosting one of our clothing banks either!
