The churches work together to collect foil, which is taken to the Queen Elizabeth II Activity Centre in Manor Farm Country Park - they sell the foil for recycling, and raise money for equipment. Foil is collected in various churches, and there are publicly-available bins at the Palmerston Avenue car park in central Fareham, and at Immaculate Conception Roman Catholic church in Stubbington.
Please make sure that the foil is clean, and is actually foil not shiny plastic! If in doubt, use the 'scrunch' test - scrunch it in your hand and release it, if it stays scrunched it is probably aluminium, if it doesn't it definitely isn't.
Various churches in Fareham provide recycling facilities for items that are not recycled by the council. Below are some details of which we have been notified.
Used stamps, coins, spectacles, hearing aids, mobile phones, ink cartridges, aluminum foil, milk bottle tops. See the church's recycling page for more details.
