Forest Recycling Project is a dynamic and creative community business promoting environmental and community sustainability to local organisations, businesses and individuals through waste recycling and reuse activities. We are based in Walthamstow but we carry out our work in several boroughs in North and East London.

The centre also aims to raise awareness about the social and environmental benefits of reuse and recycling, and the activities individuals and communities can engage in to mitigate the effects of global warming.
We are looking for a person:
• with experience of, and enthusiasm for, working with, and effectively engaging, people from all sections of society;
