Sustainability

FOVPS have signed up to the Terracycle programme, whereby hard to recycle plastic packaging is saved from landfill, and returned into the production cycle. Products are collected and sent away to be turned into plastic pellets for reuse by commercial companies. We also receive points per kilo of waste to translate into funds for FOVPS.

STOP PRESS We have just saved over 7 kg of Ferrero Rocher boxes and wrappers from landfill. Well done Stretford! 

We have a dedicated collection point in the lobby of the Community Building.
