I have been saving plastic bottle tops for the last few months only to discover that the shop who collected them no longer participates in the scheme.  These tops were for a charity.  Any idea if anyone in Catral collects them otherwise they will fill one wheelie bin!!  Thanks

Yes, they are, but collecting just this type of plastic means it can be reused for a specific and helpful purpose. Problem is that I've forgotten what that use is. The last time I saw a collection point was in Vega Baja hospital, but that was a while ago

Hi. Yes, they are recyclable but I cannot remember whether the money went to buy wheelchairs or whether that was when I was living in Turkey.  Either way, if someone can make some money for some worthwhile cause, it would keep me happy!

Hi.  I am just going to be starting a charity collection of plastic bottle tops for a dog charity and saw your post.  I wonder if you could share where you sent them too if you can.  Also willing to take some if you have some.  Many thanks
