Local businesses working together to save the environment

Nowadays, organisations are becoming increasingly aware of their environmental responsibilities with some wanting to pursue aims which are specifically for the protection of the environment whilst others just want to incorporate environmental responsibility in their everyday activities.

With this in mind, when Canford Audio based in Washington decided to employ a new paperless system, with it came the issue of what to do with the surplus of 2000 lever arch files.

Instead of disposing of these materials, the idea came about to seek to support a local charity and so the files were kindly donated to us here at Building Futures East where they will be recycled and used in our training centre which supports local unemployed and disadvantaged residents to gain training and employment.

Building Futures East would like to thank the Canford Group for their kind donation.
