Chillisauce Recycles their Tech for Charity

London based event management specialists Chillisauce have raised a total of £409.80 for Greater Manchester’s St Ann’s Hospice.

Teaming up with SE Recycling (SER), one of the UK’s largest IT disposal companies, the event management specialists were able to recycle all their unwanted and redundant IT and electronic equipment. In doing so they were able to maximise the value of each redundant device whilst simultaneously preventing any material reaching landfill.

Using the funds raised through their sustainable efforts, Chillisauce chose to donate to St Ann’s Hospice. The charity supports patients from right across Greater Manchester and parts of Cheshire from its sites in Heald Green and Little Hulton, as well as a range of community and outreach services.

The charity runs fundraising events and activities, has shops across Greater Manchester and online, and its very own hospice lottery.

Gary Mo, Managing Director at SE Recycling said: “At SE Recycling we strive to work with like-minded businesses who want to have a sustainable impact not just on the environment but the local community. Chillisauce is one of these businesses and we are very proud to able to have helped them raise funds for such a great charity like St Ann’s Hospice.

To be sustainable you must focus not just on the environmental impact but the economic and social impact too and this is why we are so pleased to see Chillisauce’s recycling actions continue to have an impact well after the initial recycling process.”

Rachel McMillan, Chief Executive of St Ann’s Hospice, said: “As a charity we have to fundraise around £20,000 a day to keep our services running for local people and those closest to them, and that has been especially challenging during the pandemic when our staff have been working hard on the frontline.

“We’re really grateful to Chillisauce and SE Recycling for their kind support. Every penny donated really does make a difference to the lives of the people we support, so huge thanks to everyone involved.”

Andes Mountains Hydro Power - Chile

Located in the Tinguiririca River upper valley, this Hydroelectric project is around 120km south of Santiago, Chile. Known as La Confluencia, the 163 MW run of river hydro power plant utilizes the hydrological resources of the Tinguiririca, Portillo and Azufre Rivers, in a run of river scheme to generate and supply zero emission energy to the Chilean central electricity grid (SIC). The power plant generates certified emission reductions (CERs) by displacing electricity generation from grid connected fossil fuel-fired power plants that would otherwise be generating electricity.

Environmental Sustainability

The primary objective of the proposed project is to help meet Chile’s rising demand for energy due to its economic growth and to improve the supply of electricity, while contributing to the environmental, social (job creation in the construction phase, and infrastructure enhancements in surrounding municipalities) and economic sustainability by increasing renewable energy’s share on the Chilean electricity consumption. The Project activity improves the supply of electricity with clean, renewable hydroelectric power while contributing to the regional/local economic development.

Social Development

Through the “Tinguiririca Participa” grant program, the project directly finances proposals presented by community organisation, in areas such as healthcare, education, and social change. In the first year of the program, the joint venture financed 11 projects, while today the number of projects surpasses 200. All of these initiatives are aimed at meeting community needs.

Flora and Fauna

In addition to social projects, reforestation of around 120 hectares around the site has been implemented, helping protect and improve the local flora and fauna, with a specific impact on local Tricahue Parrot, Torrent Duck, Freshwater Catfish, Torrent Duck and Freshwater Catfish species.
