Michelle Hughes, Brace's Bakery and Diane Stringer from Ty Hafan

Brace's Bakery is supporting Ty Hafan, The Children's Hospice in Wales, by becoming the latest company to sign up for the charity's recycling scheme. And it is urging other businesses to follow in its footsteps and reduce their carbon footprint.

Ty Hafan benefits from the recycling initiative run by Land Phil Recycling Ltd in Caerphilly, which provides businesses, schools, organisations or groups with a free recycling box for empty laser or inkjet cartridges and old mobile phones.

Full boxes are collected free of charge and the unwanted waste is turned into cash for the hospice, with organisations being able to track how much they raise from each collection.

Mark Brace, managing director of the family baker, said: "At Brace's we are committed to helping the community and supporting as many charities as we can. Ty Hafan is such a worthwhile cause, helping children with life limiting conditions to make the most of the time they have left.

"The Land Phil scheme fitted in perfectly with our values and through joining this scheme, we can drastically reduce our office waste, raise funds for the charity and help protect the environment."
