ReciproCity East London is an early member of the growing ReciproCity network around the UK. These centres were formed by Recipro an innovative, award winning company dedicated to helping the construction industry to reduce waste, reduce carbon and benefit local communities.
ReciproCities accept donations of surplus, unused building materials and DIY equipment from construction contractors, as well as reclaimed, re-usable supplies. These are then made available to community groups, charities, schools and the general public at a minimum 60% discount. In addition to materials from contractors ReciproCities also receive end of line stock from suppliers, building merchants and manufacturers into the sector.
If you would like to find out how you can donate materials into the centre, please contact Recipro on or 0844 225 3000
