‘Return for Children’ is the new charity fundraising initiative supporting six national children’s charities – Barnardos Ireland, Barretstown, Childline by ISPCC, Jack & Jill, LauraLynn Children’s Hospice, and Make-A-Wish Ireland launched in conjunction with Re-turn – operators of Ireland’s Deposit Return Scheme. Each charity addresses different aspects of children’s needs, from healthcare and support for serious illnesses to providing essential services and advocacy for vulnerable children.‘Return for Children’ is designed for large-scale events such as festivals, concerts, and sporting matches. The goal of this campaign is to reduce mixed litter at events and provide attendees with the option of donating their bottle and can deposits at designated Re-turn bins, with the deposit return proceeds going to charity.
Event organisers who do not have a charity partner and would like to give their attendees the option to donate their bottles and can deposits to ‘Return for Children’, please get in touch with Re-turn by emailing info@re-turn.ie
