Recycling and Helping Others

Here's one we prepared earlier......(video at bottom of blog!)


 Re-cycling and Helping Others


Hello everyone....this is just a very quick blog. We tried to do a video on the way out to school the other day but it was a bit rushed! School Run Madness!

Anyway, the point of it was, we are always trying to find ways to recycle, and giving to charity is a really good way to do that and help others too.


Everyone has different charities they like to support because of special reasons and even if you can't take things to the shops, lots of them send plastic bags round the doors and will pick up for you. Mum says you have to be a little bit careful sometimes and make sure it is a charity you know and trust but there are lots and lots of really good causes which need help.

You can even give them a phone if you miss them, and quite a few like the British Heart Foundation, Strathcarron Hospice and the Salvation Army have furniture shops too and are happy to collect your old items. If you live somewhere different, there are probably similar charities in your area too.

It is good to help others and if we can re-use things it means that more new stuff won't have to be made and that will help the planet too.

Of course, it raises money for Charity too and that's a good thing. There are lots of good ways to raise money for charity but donating your clothes and other things is a good way to recycle and help others too.

Thanks for visiting,

Amelie and Erin
