The Recycle for Cornwall campaign has been developed to raise public awareness of recycling and to provide consumers with a compelling reason to recycle.
In recent years, Penwith District Council has provided Green Waste Skips for the collection of garden waste for composting. For a variety of reasons, this system proved to be unsuccessful so a new service is being trialed.
The Green Waste skips have been replaced with a Pilot Kerbside Collection of Garden Waste. Trial collections were run this year and a number of small areas in each town in Penwith were included to try to get an accurate view on how things would work and how the public responded to the new scheme. There has been a lot of positive feedback from the public.
"Recycling is hugely important, and if it's given enough support it will have a huge impact. This campaign gives Cornwall a chance to make a real difference."
