Our History

  • Recycling Lives Charity comprises both a charity and social enterprise. We were founded in 2008, with an aim of reducing homelessness and reoffending by supporting men and women into stable housing and employment. We later added food redistribution to our model, in partnership with FareShare, to reduce food waste and tackle food poverty.

Beneficiaries

  • Adults

    By working with ex-offenders, homeless people and people experiencing food poverty (schools, community groups, families) we are helping to create a safer, fairer society for all, encouraging a more inclusive society with opportunities for all.

Our Vision for a better future

  • We are on a mission to encourage and empower people to achieve and sustain positive change. By breaking down barriers and connecting people through positive opportunities we equip people with the skills and resources to improve their quality of life. We want to overcome barriers such as prejudice and access to resources to live fulfilling lives.

Our goals to make a difference

  • Reduce re offending and create a fairer, safer society

  • Reduce food poverty in our communities

  • Reduce homelessness

  • Provide disadvantaged and hard to reach groups with the tools they need to rebuild their lives

  • Create employment opportunities for those furthest away from opportunities
