Bin Twinning has closed.

But, Tearfund’s work with
plastic pollution continues

 

From September 2020 to May 2023, Bin Twinning raised funds to support the work of international development charity Tearfund. Tearfund’s global network of social enterprises are doing amazing work to save lives, protect the planet and create thousands of jobs in waste collection.

Every pound you have donated to Bin Twinning has gone to support Tearfund’s work with world-changing, plastic-clearing, recycling, reusing, climate-loving social enterprises.

While Bin Twinning is now closed, the work that Bin Twinning has been funding won’t be stopping. The social enterprises aren’t going anywhere!

Tearfund has taken the difficult decision to close down the Bin Twinning fundraising campaign. They will be focusing on other fundraising campaigns to support their growing network of social enterprises that are setting up rubbish collections and recycling services.
