Good to know

batteries should not be thrown away with your general waste as they contain heavy metals and potentially dangerous chemicals
batteries are delivered to a specialist recycling plant in the UK. They are sorted based on their chemical content and reprocessed to produce other products, or even new batteries
in Jersey, we throw away more than 800,000 batteries each year
