Life in Salford 33 • June 2021 20
Renew shop will open in Salford Pre-loved items are getting a new lease of life as Greater Manchester makes it easier for residents to donate their unwanted items for re-use. Boysnope Wharf recycling centre in Salford is to be the site of one of three Recycle for Greater Manchester and SUEZ’s Renew shops. This waste prevention initiative will help reduce waste and give unwanted household items a ‘new’ lease of life, as well as creating jobs and helping to reduce our carbon impact. Donations to the shops can be made at Renew donation containers at Lumns Lane, Cobden Street and Boysnope Wharf recycling centres. The Renew shops sell quality pre-loved household items such as furniture, bric-a-brac, gardening equipment, vintage goods, games, and toys. Money raised from the shop sales will be given to good causes across Greater Manchester. At least £220,000 each year will be given to the R4GM Community Fund which is available to support community projects around waste and recycling. Also £100,000 will be donated to the Greater Manchester Mayor’s Charity to support vulnerable communities.
Pre-loved items donated at your local recycling centre. All profits given to good causes across Greater Manchester.
