The Sun Shone on Uckfield Recycling centre...
2140kg is the combined weight of CPRE members attending the private tour of Uckfield Recycling Centre, the first of Lorna Train’s series of 2012 Summer Outings. Lured onto the weighbridge for an introductory chat in thankfully glorious sunshine, there followed an illuminating tour of the recycling facility and an instructive presentation in the Education Centre. It quickly became apparent how complex and expensive processing our everyday rubbish has become and how beholden we are to do our bit to first reduce, re-use, repair and then recycle.
