🌟 Support Bingham Penguins Swim Club by Recycling Your Empty Ink Cartridges! 🌟

Ever wondered how a simple act like recycling your empty ink cartridges can make a significant impact? By bringing them to the Co-op in Bingham, you can contribute to a greener environment and support the Bingham Penguins Swim Club.

You’re someone who cares about the community and the environment. By choosing to recycle your ink cartridges at the Co-op, you’re directly aiding the Bingham Penguins, a local charity dedicated to providing swimming opportunities for people with disabilities.

We understand that finding convenient recycling options can be challenging. That’s why we’ve partnered with the Co-op in Bingham to make it easy for you to drop off your used ink cartridges, knowing they’ll be recycled responsibly and the proceeds will benefit the Bingham Penguins.

How would it feel to know that your simple act of recycling is helping individuals with disabilities enjoy swimming? What if every cartridge you recycle could make a difference in someone’s life?

You might be thinking, “Does my small contribution really matter?” In reality, every cartridge counts. Your participation not only reduces environmental waste but also provides essential funding for the Bingham Penguins Swim Club.

Would you be opposed to making a positive impact in your community through a simple recycling effort? If not, please consider bringing your empty ink cartridges to the Co-op in Bingham.

📍 Drop-off Location:

Co-op Bingham
35 Market Place
Bingham, NG13 8AN

🕒 Opening Hours:

Monday to Saturday: 6am to 10pm
Sunday: 10am to 4pm

Bingham Penguins are runners up for the Club of the Year award. We know we are a very special club and love our penguin family. It is wonderful to have this recognition.

The Club of the Year award recognises a club affiliated to the Region who continually go above and beyond for their members, providing excellent service in both wet and dry land activities. This award focuses on clubs who create and foster the community spirit of aquatics.

We are pleased to congratulate Bingham Penguins on being this year’s runners up for Club of the Year.

Bingham Penguins Swimming Club is a club for people with disabilities, their families and carers. Bingham Penguins is a long standing club of the Region, having run for nearly thirty years.

The club has seen swimmers achieve greatness by competing in competitions both nationally and internationally.

From assisting in the water, to teaching members how to swim, to coaching on poolside, all the volunteers at the club work extremely hard to keep the club running and ensure their members have a happy experience in the water.

We would like to take this opportunity to say thank you for the hard work that you have put into the sport.
