Warwickshire County Council is looking for a charity to run a recycling shop in 
Leamington which will sell items left at the town’s refuse tip but deemed suitable
for selling.
The scheme is modelled on a successful initiative, the first of its
kind in the UK, run by the Shakespeare Hospice at Burton Farm, near Stratford, which
has raised over £150,000.

Interested charities will need to complete a council tender form indicating how 
they will manage the shop effectively.
