Cornwall attracts 5 million visitors each year and during the summer months many Cornish residents also take to exploring their county either on holiday or through day trips. Recycle for Cornwall would like to encourage you to continue recycling when you are out and about and has some great ideas on how you can reduce, reuse and recycle this summer.

Small things make a big difference

Have you seen the Recycle for Cornwall leaflet? For further information on our suggestions please see the links below:

Reusable picnic sets

Pack a traditional picnic using a set that can be used again and again. You will save money in the long run and your picnic will feel much more special. Try to avoid plastic packaging when buying food for your picnic, choose packaging that can be recycled instead.

Environmentally friendly charcoal

Fuel your barbeque this summer with locally produced, environmentally friendly charcoal and help support Cornwall Wildlife Trust at the same time! Cornwall Wildlife trust produce charcoal using traditional methods from surplus wood produced by active conservation management of Devichoys Wood Nature Reserve. All profits raised go back in to conservation work carried out in Cornwall.

Reusable portable barbeque

It is fantastic to be able to barbeque wherever you go in Cornwall but spending money on cheap disposable barbeques soon mounts up, creates more waste going to landfill and causes problems with littering on beaches. Why not buy a reusable portable barbeque that you can use each time you are out and about?
