Recycle Week (21 -27 September 2020)

Now in its 17th year, Recycle Week will thank the nation for continuing to recycle despite the challenges that COVID-19 has presented, under the banner ‘Together – We Recycle’.

Our recycling and waste key workers have heroically carried on collecting while the world slowed down around them. Landmark buildings like Worcester Arena will be lit up green as a tribute.

Actions:

• Thank your local team when they next come to collect your recycling—give them a card or a thank you gift.

• In church and in your private prayers give thanks for the growing movement to recycle, reuse and repurpose.

• Use the week to encourage others, and find new ways to recycle.

Possible Eco Church references:  Buildings 23, Lifestyle 6 & 7
