At RPC Recycle, we work with a number of charities to help raise funds for them by recycling unwanted mobile phones and we are incredibly proud of the relationships we have built with with NORCAS over years.

NORCAS is a leading independent charity working with people, of all ages, who have problems with alcohol, drugs or gambling. They provide advice and information and have professional help available if it is needed.

Here’s what Donna Hunt Training & Fundraising assistant at NORCAS had to say about working with us;

RPC engineer Sam  raised £1000 by taking part in the Wheely Wobbly Walk earlier in the Month to raise money for Ataxia UK.

Ataxia is the name given to a group of neurological disorders that affect balance, coordination, and speech. There are many different types of ataxia that can affect people in different ways.

Some forms of ataxia are treatable, but in most cases there is still no cure. Ataxia UK are funding a wide range of research projects to try to find treatments that can help ataxia, and ultimately to find a cure.  If you would like to know more about the charity you can do so by clicking here

However, contrary to popular belief, non-iPad users were found to use their tablets more than buyers of iPads. This could be due to the cost of 3G tariffs and limited availability of Wi-Fi, encouraging people to opt for ereaders like Amazon’s Kindle instead.

Children and teenagers are watching more TV but say the web and their mobiles are more important, Ofcom research reveals.

Comm-Tech which has been based in Martham for the last 25 years since it was first established in 1986 is a family grown business and branched out into two other associated companies, Juice Telecoms in 2007 and RPC Recycle in 2002. The move to Norwich will bring all three companies together under one roof for the first time.
