Recycling mobile phones
Did you know that there are 60 million unused mobile phones in the UK and only 10% of these are currently being recycled?
How you can help
Every phone that is recycled for Rainbow Trust raises vital funds that could help fund our 24 hour helpline. If you have an old handset that you wish to donate please pop it in an envelope and send it to:
RAINBOW TRUST (W)
