This weekend, Gemma and Tom worked through more of the crisp packets, cutting, washing and ironing them into stips of 4. This community mission is about giving new life to one use plastics and saving lives. Just magic ๐. There are others in Leeds involved in the project and we are working with other charities and organisations across Leeds to distribute the items and collect the crisp packets.
If you would like to get involved and help us to recycle crisp packets to make survival items for people experiencing homelessness a year, please get in touch or sign up to our repeat community mission next weekend!

We are a small charity with limited resources, so jobs like this often fall by the wayside. It helps us to continue to focus on our core work, but also with compost, it means we can have less inputs and save money
