CALM makes recycling appeal
No doubt there will be many mobile phones and printers under
Christmas trees this year.
The problem is, what to do with the old ones. Swindon CALM
(Children's Cancer & Leukaemia Movement) has the answer.
Most households have some old or redundant phones in drawers that
could be put to good use. And don't just throw cartridges away. CALM
can raise cash by recycling them.
