Help us fight climate change and be in with the chance of winning a \u00a350 East Ayrshire gift card<\/strong>.<\/em><\/p>\n

A whopping 69% of food waste in East Ayrshire is not being recycled.<\/em><\/p>\n

To encourage more people to recycle their food waste, the EAC Sustainability & Climate Change Team<\/strong> has launched a new recycling at home campaign \u2013 Dinnae forget your Caddy!<\/em><\/p>\n

The campaign was successfully rolled out last year in schools and ECCs across East Ayrshire but now the team need your help to raise Community Caddy Counts<\/strong>.<\/em><\/p>\n

Support the campaign by naming your caddy (Caddy McCaddyface is absolutely acceptable) and\u00a0register the name\u00a0online<\/a><\/em><\/p>\n

Write the name in permanent marker on your caddy, then all you have to do is present your caddy each week to be entered into the \u2018Favourite Caddy of the Month\u2019 draw.<\/em><\/p>\n

The monthly draw will run from November through to May, and the recycling crews will select one \u2018named\u2019 caddy at random to win a \u00a350 East Ayrshire gift card.<\/strong><\/em><\/p>\n

You could also encourage your neighbours, family and friends to take part in the campaign and make it a bit competitive. Let us know if you\u00a0encourage anyone to start recycling<\/a><\/em><\/p>\n

EAC Waste crews will begin monitoring the number and names\/designs of kerbside caddies from 4th November<\/u><\/strong>.<\/em><\/p>\n

At the end of November, EAC Sustainability & Climate Change team will let you know:<\/em><\/p>\n
