Envision Bottle Tops for Artificial Limbs

I am saving my bottle top lids (Numbers 2 and 4 under the lid) and giving them to Envision who are grinding them up to make artificial limbs for children.
They have collection centres everywhere.
This is their website - https://envision.org.au/
Bottle Top Drop Off Locations - https://envision.org.au/bottle-top-drop-off-locations/
I do not work for Envision - I see this as a very worthy cause and a great way to recycle these lids
Thank you

Yes Envision are collecting bread tags as well - just keep them separately in a bag together.
Envision can provide you with a Tally Sheet so you can list down what lids you have (how many blue lids, how many yellow lids) and bread tags when you hand them in.

I'm busy doing this at the moment. I think its an easy awesome idea that we can all do, and also the bread tags

It's a great idea. My children's school is a collection point as well, so we are busily collecting them. They also mentioned that we can collect bread plastic tags too. Have you heard the same thing?
