Neil Wintrip, Founder & Co-Director of Devon-based A1 Positive Recycling is passionate about what the project is achieving within the South West communities it serves. The not-for-profit social enterprise has been established within the Devon community since 1992, although it started out life as a recycling centre for televisions and video players. In 1997, Neil learned about building computers from a friend and since then the organisation’s focus has been on recycling computers, mobile phones and ink cartridges as well as providing training and work experience for volunteers, typically younger people that have just left school and are keen to get some work skills under their belts. To arrange an informal Interview.
A1 Positive Recycling is a good example of how a project can help out the wider community, plus the environment, by teaming up with organisations across the area, reducing the amount of waste going to landfill and also helping end users – businesses and average Joes – to gain access to affordable, usable IT equipment. That it also gives community members the opportunity to get involved, perhaps enhancing their skill-sets in the process, is the icing on the cake.
