Welcome
to Laserxchange / British Heart Foundation Donation Pages
Coronary
heart disease is the single most common cause of death in the
UK. One in four men and one in six women in the UK die from it.
Heart disease affects people of all ages and from all backgrounds
and has a terrible impact on the lives of many individuals and
their families.
The British Heart
Foundation (BHF) is the leading national charity fighting heart
and circulatory disease - the UK's number one killer. Our partnership
with the BHF offers you the chance not only to recycle your cartridges
but raise vital funds for the fight against heart disease.
For every suitable
cartridge Laserxchange will donate £2.00 per original laser cartridge
and £1 per inkjet cartridge to the BHF. All costs involved in
the set up and running of the scheme are met by Laserxchange,
which means that you can get involved for free.
The donations generated
through our recycling fundraising scheme will help the BHF get
to the heart of the problem by conducting research into heart
health, funding lifesaving equipment and providing the care, support
and information heart patients and their families need.
Douglas Rouse, Head
of Corporate Fundraising at the BHF says: "We're encouraging
every computer user - both at work and home - to recycle their
printer cartridges for the British Heart Foundation. It's simple
and free for home PC or mac users and companies to get involved,
and they'll be helping us to raise vital funds. What's more, they'll
be doing their bit to protect the environment."
Laser cartridges can be recycled
by emailing Louise Grady on louise@laserxchange.co.uk
or by calling 01873 859901 and registering your company. Your
cartridges will then be collected free of charge.
 Your
inkjet cartridges can be recycled by putting the used ones into
one of our special freepost envelopes, available from your local
BHF shop.
