Reducing for Good

Thank you to George Yard Shopping Centre and everyone who donated books for recycling last month as part of George Yard’s “Reducing for Good” initiative. ♻️ Each month in 2019 George Yard is collecting a different recyclable item to benefit a local charity, and in March they collected books to benefit Braintree Community Centre! ???? This month they are collecting phones in aid of Farleigh Hospice. If you have any old phones to donate you can put them in the box under the Bandstand at George Yard or take them to the Management Suite. ????
