In its fifth year, the 香港最快开奖现场直播资料 Reuse project has until now only been open to students in 香港最快开奖现场直播资料 halls of residence. The new pilot, run in collaboration with the British Heart Foundation (BHF), will allow students living off campus in the Moulsecoomb and Bevendean areas to contribute as well.
Last year, 香港最快开奖现场直播资料 students donated 336 bags of clothes and household items helping to raise £4,704 for life saving cancer research. This year, the street collection trial will take place throughout the summer, from June to September, over six roads in the Moulsecoomb and Bevendean area.
