4. The scenario
• Your local council has an open day
• They have invited all the new residents so
they can find out about recycling in the
area
• They want YOU to make a presentation of
the current services for recycling
5. What you need to do
• Research the range of services your local
council offers and put your ideas into a
five minute presentation
• To do this, search on the internet for your
council (http://www.redbridge.gov.uk/)
6. Now find out:
• The sorts of items that can be recycled in
your area
• What is collected from your home for
recycling
• When the collections are
• What people can do with big items for
recycling
7. Include in your presentation:
• Why recycling is important
• How your local council collects waste for
recycling
• What types of waste are recycled
• Your view on how well the recycling
system works and why
8. More data…
• Let newcomers to the area give their
suggestions
• Find out what your friends and family think
of the existing system – are the services
good enough?
• Can you suggest improvements to get the
discussion started?
