New Year, new funding…..

With Christmas behind us, now is a time to enter the New Year with new enthusiasm and fresh ideas for increasing recycling and reducing waste.

Recycle for Greater Manchester’s Community Waste Fund (CWF) is back to provide funding for projects that will help to reduce the amount of waste created in Greater Manchester.

A wide variety of groups has already been supported,

• a tenant association, who encouraged local residents and businesses to recycle right,
• a bike re-use workshop,
• a social housing landlord who have set up a new furniture re-use organisation and shop, which is taking good quality furniture from their empty properties to help new tenants furnish their homes cheaply.

The next round of the CWF is now open for applications until the 15th February 2013.

If you have an idea but don’t know what to do next you can go to the website www.recycleforgreatermanchester.com and read the guidance notes and also find out what other  projects have been previously funded.

Please note the fund is only for projects in Greater Manchester.
