Community wood recycling – Ben Moss – #BS12
This month we talk to Ben Moss from Bristol Wood Recycling Project (BWRP).
Ben set up the recycling project in 2004 with the aims of:
- Recycling timber from the waste stream,
- Promoting social inclusion,
- Being self funding
- Providing affordable timber to the community. This is an excellent project that benefits the community on many levels and gets the maximum use out of precious materials.
