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:

Recycled toys that are recyclable

If you have ever bought a child a present only to find they are more interested in the cardboard box, these environmentally friendly, cost effective and sturdy toys may be just the thing for you! There are many different designs which can be decorated by your child and folded flat for easy storage. The toys are made from recycled cardboard and when your child grows out of it, can be recycled once again!
