DeclutterHow many of you have unwanted, out-of-date or leftover household chemicals from the kitchen, bathroom, laundry, garage or garden shed hanging around your house because you’re not sure what to do with them?   Of course these potentially hazardous chemicals can’t be thrown out with the normal rubbish – it wouldn’t be safe for our health or the environment.  So what do you do with them?

It turns out help is at hand, and it’s coming next week!
