September 2003 - Community Recycling Network
Two members from Caia Park attended a meeting with the CRN to learn more about this nationwide project.  The ethos behind the CRN is that all timber can be reclaimed/recycled thus preserving a natural resource and reducing the amount that goes into Landfill sites.  Wood which has been rescued either from the public, businesses or organisations can be use for DIY/building, making wood products or turned into chipboard.  The CRN is a self-supporting, not for profit environmental group.  Caia Park are very enthusiastic about this project, for more detail go to www.crn.org.uk
