A HOSPICE is swapping collection tins for aluminium cans in a big recycling campaign.
Bishop Auckland's Butterwick Hospice hopes to collect a million aluminium drinks cans, and wants schools, factories and the public to help them reach their target.
The hospice, which has won awards for its recycling schemes, will take the cans to Tomlinsons scrap merchants, in St Helen Auckland. The money it makes will go towards hospice funds.
Cans can be deposited at the collection point in the hospice car park, in Woodhouse Lane, Bishop Auckland. All donations are welcome.
