INSTEAD of throwing away your old computers or printers why don't you look at ways to recycle them?
There are many organisations who would like to take obsolete kit off your hands and spruce it up for charitable groups to use.
One website, Our Kids Sports (www.ourkidsports.com), ha lasunched Kicks 'n' Clicks 2003, which aims to get businesses to recycle used electrical equipment.
The project aims to refurbish and redistribute computers from businesses throughout the North West to junior and senior amateur sports organisations.
Kicks 'n' Clicks will arrange collection of obsolete equipment, have it safety checked, format the hard drive to remove all data and then install an operating system and the software applications the sports organisations need.
The team also provides online and e-mail support and can install and configure systems in club premises.
