*Battery recycling scheme launched*.

29 May 2008

Free hot drink if you recycle at a FoodOnCampus outlet 2-6 June.

The Environmental Services Unit in the Directorate of Estates will be rolling out a battery recycling scheme across the main campus to coincide with National Recycling Week that runs from 2 to 6 June.

Battery collection containers will be distributed widely around the campus for students and staff to recycle household type batteries. During National Recycling Week FoodonCampus will also reward anyone recycling a battery at one of their outlets by giving them a free hot drink of their choice.

Anyone wanting a battery container for their workplace or additional information should e-mail:

The containers are 20cm by 23cm and will be collected by Campus Cleansing when full. They will be distributed with an A3 sized poster and are free of charge.
