How Rstuff can help

Educational resource packs have been produced with partners specifically aligned with the curriculum, to provide schools with the confidence that they can be easily incorporated into the school academic programme.

The Rstuff resource library contains a wealth of resources to help you learn more about plastics recycling and how you can spread the message.
