Recycling Initiatives in the VillageIn Ellisfield (‘The Green Village’) we aim to live up to that description both from a scenic and environmentally friendly viewpoint. There are several recycling initiatives in place in the village; a number of residents spare the time to collate and recycle items which cannot be included in the green wheelie bin. The list is provided below - do please consider using these facilities and reduce the amount going to incineration, and the impact on the environment. Ted Dowson our Chairman, due to illness, cannot for the foreseeable future provide a facility to dispose of printer cartridges and toners, however, Seumas Foster has kindly agreed to handle the disposal of these for the interim, along with household batteries. Item and drop off point: - Printer cartridges and toners – Seumas Foster, Northgate Cottage, Northgate Lane
- Household batteries – Seumas Foster, Northgate Cottage, Northgate Lane Aluminum Foil (not cans) – Peter and Lyng Hopwood, The Acorns, Axford Road
