Tools Shed

Solving the gardener's perennial dilemma what to do with tools that are too broken to use but too good to throw away?

This problem is solved in a stroke with Tools Shed, The Conservation Foundation's tools for schools recycling project, run in association with HM Prisons, has given away thousands of tools, given new skills to prisoners and saved tonnes of waste.

East Lothian residents can drop off tools at Dunbar Garden Centre where they will be refurbished by prisoners at HMP Edinburgh.

A special recycling point has been set up at the garden centre, on the town’s Spott Road, for anything from forks and spades to rakes and trowels. - See more at: http://www.eastlothiancourier.com/news/dunbar/articles/2014/04/14/494753-drop-off-your-worn-out-tools-at-dunbar-garden-centre-and-prisoners-will-repair-them/#sthash.isBJu2oe.dpuf
