Crow Recycling provides work placements for disabled people, mainly people with learning difficulties. We do this by running a number of social enterprises including confidential waste destruction, sale of animal bedding, processing used drinks cans, processing large second hand book donations and running a second hand arts and crafts materials shop.
Our disabled volunteers gain skills such as operating machinery, safe manual handling and customer service. They also pick up social skills for work and have the opportunity to learn some customer service skills. Some of our volunteers move on to more demanding placements or a paid job while others are with us long term.
Our Scrapstore, selling donated items for arts and crafts, diverts materials such as surplus fabric from soft furnishing companies away from landfill. The Scrapstore also makes crafting a more affordable hobby for our customers.
