Description

Thurs 12th March
12 - 2pm
TU Dublin Grangegorman Lower House - LH 231
Drop in Re-turn activity

€300 worth of cash prizes to give out to volunteers on this day who take the best photo of objects they audit from our Re-turn bins at this drop in activity.

Join us on Thursday 12th March in Lower House LH 231 Grangegorman.
We are going togather the contents of our three Grangegorman Re-turn bins and audit what has been put into the bins.

We will also take the opportunity to take photos of the contents and educate students and staff on how the bins should be used.

We will equip our selves with the correct gear - gloves, masks etc. - and empty the bin, do some citizen scientific research by auditing the contents and then go to the local Re-turn Reverse Vending Machine to make some money for our chosen charity!

Students will be encouraged to take photos of their findings, be creative and there will be cash prizes for the best photos.
