Rullion Continues to Raise Funds for Teenage Cancer Trust

In partnership with SE Recycling (SER), Rullion has successfully raised £303.73 for their chosen charity – Teenage Cancer Trust through the sustainable and ethical recycling of Rullion’s redundant IT equipment.

By SER’s assistance, Rullion is able to ensure that their retired IT equipment is sustainably recycled, refurbished, and reintroduced to the market. SER generates a rebate from these IT collections and encourages our clients to donate these rebates to charities or non-profit organisations. Through this project, companies like Rullion can offer economic support to those in need while also contributing to environmental conservation.

Cancer kills more teenagers and young adults in the UK than any other disease. And for those who survive, going through it without the right support can be devastating – physically and emotionally.

Today, and every day, seven young people will hear the words “you have cancer”. They will each need specialised nursing care and support to get them through it. Teenage Cancer Trust is the only UK charity dedicated to meeting this vital need – so no young person faces cancer alone. There’s never been a worse time to receive that news, with healthcare services close to breaking point, waiting times increasing, and diagnosis taking longer.

Our generous donator, Rullion is a recruitment company specialising in staffing solutions, talent consultancy, and managed services across IT, Rail, Utilities, and Nuclear sectors. They help clients develop effective strategies and streamline recruitment processes, aiming to be a trusted partner for major UK brands.

Emma Cross, Teenage Cancer Trust Senior Relationship Manager for the North West & Cumbria said “We are hugely thankful to SE Recycling Ltd and the latest donation from Rullion. Your support helps make sure specialised Teenage Cancer Trust nurses, support teams, and hospital units are there for young people, throughout their cancer treatment and beyond. But we couldn’t do any of this without you. It’s only thanks to donations from our supporters that we can continue to be there for every young person who needs us. From all of us at Teenage Cancer Trust: thank you!”

SE Recycling’s IT Collections Manager, Simon chow said: “Numerous charities and organizations have faced significant challenges due to the pandemic, and we are committed to supporting those affected in every possible way. Rullion’s recycling and fundraising initiatives have been instrumental in helping us reach our goal of creating a sustainable future for everyone.”

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.
