Power Positivity with ‘Batteries for Barretstown’
ERP created the programme “Batteries for Barretstown” to raise awareness about the importance of battery recycling in Ireland and to increase the number of batteries recycled through ERP collection points. Since its launch, the educational initiative has garnered sustained media coverage across national, regional, and online platforms. It has also successfully engaged Irish consumers and stakeholders, driving behavioural change, boosting battery recycling rates, and raising much-needed funds for Barretstown.
Please place our ‘Batteries for Barretstown’ boxes or collection tube in a convenient location in your school, so that your pupils can recycle their used batteries. To arrange a collection or request more boxes, simply ring our operations team on 0818 332 757 or email info@erpcollect.ie
‘Batteries for Barretstown’ is operational in 7 counties – Louth, Meath, Monaghan, Dublin Fingal, Cavan, Clare, and Kerry.
