Project Abstract
The project will work towards broadening the reach of ReCreate which in turn will encourage more reuse of commercial materials that ReCreate salvaged from business. The ReCreate project overall looks to divert 30 tonnes of materials from landfill year 1 and 115 by year 3, save schools (approx �1,500 per annum) and community groups substantially on their art and educational supplies budgets while encouraging reuse . Businesses save substantially on disposal costs as well storage costs. The project's results will be disseminated through ReCreate's social media channels, associated companies, contacts in the county councils, our website and national newsapers.
