Fast Progress

Progress with the construction of the first Recycling Lives facility in Preston is now well under way. The site has seen its second steel delivery today, from TW Fabrications as the building begins to rapidly take shape.

The initial steelworks phase of construction has now been in progress for a week and is projected to take 6 weeks giving a finish date of around the end of May. The work is currently making good progress and as a result we may see advancement to the second stage of construction earlier than the expected June start date.

The second stage of construction will see the pre-cast concrete flooring being laid to form the floors of the building. From this stage the building will really start to take shape.

Recycling Lives offers good Corporate Social Responsibility.

Recycling Lives operates nationally to provide a wide range of recycling activities to Local Authorities, commercial organisations and the public. Recycling Lives provides housing, training and long term employment in the recycling sector, to people who would otherwise be homeless; including ex-armed forces personnel, probation and those from chaotic backgrounds.

Each Recycling Lives centre provides up to 48 quality en-suite rooms; training and office facilities; incubator units for entrepreneurs in social enterprise; industrial space for our recycling processes and retail space to sell good manufactured by Recycling Lives from recycled waste.

We do not ask for, or rely on 'gifts' from you, as we always pay fair prices for scrap metal recycling, plastic and other recyclables. By selling your waste to Recycling Lives your organisation helps us to be sustainable and you to show good corporate social responsibility.

Our social enterprise 'manages' good Corporate Social Responsibility (CSR) on your behalf, by ensuring that our recycling activities are carried out by employees that would otherwise be marginalised or even forgotten by society.
