Nappies, Disposable - currently eight million nappies are
thrown away everyday in the UK, and each child will use
approximately 5,850 nappies in their lifetime!
By choosing real
nappies, you could reduce your household rubbish by half. This
will help towards a big reduction in the number of disposable
nappies buried in landfill sites
Needles, Hypodermic - Cannot be recycled, and must be
carefully disposed of. Contact your health advisor if you need to
have needles collected and disposed of. If you find a stray needle
please report it to
streets and open sapces.
Newspaper - Put in your green
box or take a
recycling bank or your local
recycling
centre.
