The British Heart Foundation has raised over £30,000 through the recycling of inkjet
cartridges and mobile phones donated by their supporters. The charity has been working
with UK-based recycling company, The Recycling Factory, since January 2012.

The charity will receive up to £4.50 for each cartridge that can be successfully
recycled and up to £30 for every recyclable mobile phone.

Earlier this week The Recycling Factory announced that it had generated £22,000 
in 2012 for the [MS Society](http://www.therecyclingfactory.com/mssociety), bringing
the total raised for the charity since 2011 to nearly £40,000.
