Don’t throw your children’s future away this Christmas – consider the environment when planning your festivities – That’s the message from Neath Port Talbot Council
Each year local authorities have to deal with thousands of tonnes of Christmas rubbish.
Neath Port Talbot Council are urging you to think of alternative gifts to the bulky packaged aftershaves, perfumes and shiny toys.
Think about a membership to a local fitness club, a day at the races or a weekend at a health spa.
The authority is also urging you to recycle your cards and tree and dispose of your old electrical products safely and environmentally friendly.
The council operates several recycling facilities and can also arrange for your old white goods and TVs to be collected and disposed of safely.
To arrange for your white goods to be collected or to find out where your nearest recycling facility is telephone 01639 764555.
Remember, Christmas is all about the children. It’s their future, don’t throw it away!
