Omlet app update does not work on ios27

Wonder if you would vote in my poll. I am going to suggest BHWT recycling ink jet cartridges and mobile phones as a fundraiser and I would very much like to take the results of this poll to our next meeitn (end of March)

 

It costs us nothing and you nothing, so everyone is a winner!

 

So please vote and help us raise vital funds

Certainly do ink cartridges for you, as its only us at work there is no point doing it there.

I have a relatively new mobile and as I'm not big on mobile phones its likely to be with me for a while

 

Great idea

We have a recycling scheme in place re ink cartridges at work.

 

I'm not sure that the phone scheme would be feasible as they are not company owned, and there would only be a couple a year anyway.

 

Ink cartridges at home though...another matter.

 

I am looking at 5 now that have no home to go to. Yet.

Same here for ink cartridges at home. Could probably do it at work as well - I don't know what they do with them at the moment

[buffie]

No matter how many phones you have it's great if you send your old ones in. You basically get a free post envelope and they do the rest for us

 

Anyway anything you can offer is fab, ink jets or phones or both

we use generic cartridges (aka compatible cartridges) for our Epson inkjet printer and so far I haven't found anyone who will recycle them. Most places seem to only recycle branded named cartridges.

 

If you can recycle generic ones then you can have all of ours but I'm not sure if they can be recycled. Let me know because if they can be, you can gladly have the lot.

At work we have to give back mobiles that dont work to get a replacement but we do get through loads of inkjet cartridges so I could grab those!

I think what you're planning sounds good Buffie. But I have a slight problem with it as the printer we use you can't recycle the ink cartridges for, (looked into it before) and I'll use my mobile until it dies-so yes, that ploy would work, but not for a long while.

 

Are there any other things you could possibly recycle in order to raise funds for the BHWT?

[buffie]

This is the first steps into bringing about fund raising on a larger scale. If you notice any other schemes please pass on to me

 

Also Poet, thanks, but Epson cartridges cannot be recycled as they don't have the value (something to do with chips )

 

Also ideas can be passed on and if you want to do a sponsored walk etc. Just let us know.

I'd love to do an event to help.

 

I don't have inkjet cartridges either at home or at work - we are all laser.

 

Phones, well at work the kids are encouraged to give them to the school as they can raise money on them, personally I change phones every year for something bang up to date and I usually sell my old on Ebay for good money, Mums are never worth any money though so I do recycle them and would happily do it for BHWT.

[buffie]

Thanks pengy. I'd like a BHWT sponsored walk, nationwide.

How does the used stamps thingy work? At church we all save used stamps for the Leprosy Mission (or we used to). How are they converted into hard cash for a cause? You could have my stamps!

[theherd123]

Im sure if i mentioned this to my head teacher (who is just mad about my chooks!) she would be up for it.

 

We have 13 sectors across our school and have more computers & printers than you can shake a stick at!

[buffie]

Fab Orps and I'll look into stamps

Stamps it seems are costly in time ane effort so perhaps not this route for BHWt.

 

It seems so far ink jets are popular so I'll press on.

 

We've decided to move on this so I've found a company to help.
