Material Focus is a not-for-profit on a mission to get the UK fixing, donating and recycling their electricals to stop precious resources from being lost forever. Our vision is a world where materials are never wasted. We have launched the Recycle Your Electricals campaign to motivate and make it easy for people to reuse and repair their unwanted electricals. As the fastest growing waste stream in the world - and the UK - discarded, unwanted electricals are the latest environmental challenge to come under the spotlight. Our goal? To protect the planet, and stop precious resources going to waste.  Hidden within electrical items are a huge amount of precious materials. Everything with a plug, battery or cable can be recycled and made into anything from life saving medical equipment to children’s playgrounds. However, if these items are binned rather than recycled, that potential is lost forever. Our website has been designed as an inspiring knowledge hub with all the tools, links and resources people need to donate, repair and recycle their unwanted electricals: www.recycleyourelectricals.org.uk
