Winner of the 'West Devon Mayoral Green Award' for 2018 was the North Tawton Plastics Recycling Volunteer Group.

Sustainable Crediton member, Carolyn Scott helped to set up this group as the local council do not provide kerbside facilities for recycling plastic.  

The dedicated group of volunteers provide a monthly collection point for residents waste plastic and work in all weathers to assist residents to sort their plastic. The group was set up 2 years ago and continues to go from strength to strength.
