Comic Relief has partnered with recycling company Eurosource to generate funds from
donated mobile phones and inkjet printer cartridges in a six-week campaign.
Eurosource
reports that it has already raised almost £1.5 million for major charities through
recyling donated items.

Different mobiles and cartridges are worth different sums of money depending on 
factors such as model and age. Eurosource’s Comic Relief website details which mobiles
and inkjet cartridges can be recycled, and exactly how much will be given to Comic
Relief for each one.

 

 

Mobiles and cartridges must be posted by April 15 to allow time for the donations
to be processed and the proceeds to be sent to Comic Relief.
