Wotaloadarubbish!

Nysa is kind to the environment and we endeavour to use recycled materials wherever possible and to educate people about recycling. There is so much waste around - much of which can be used to create something else. We support the National Scrap Network - and get much of our recycled materials from WRAP (Watfords Recycled Art Project). Wherever possible we use recycled materials in our work and workshops, and are creating a range of do-it-yourself art kits called 'WOTALOADARUBBISH!'

These recycled art kits are designed to encourage creativity and can be completed by parent/guardian and child together or an individual on the quest for artistic experience. Take some time out to make a creation of your very own, have fun, be inspired and learn new skills… These kits are made using 100% recycled materials mainly sourced from Watford Recycled Arts Project (WRAP). 10% of the purchase cost goes back to fund WRAP to help secure their future. We endeavour to raise the profile of Members of the National Scrap Network as invaluable creative resources and promote the good work of these rare projects.

The kits we have available currently are make a wish fairy kit which includes instructions and all the ingrediants you need to make a wish fairy! They cost £5.50 for a single or £10 for a double kit - if you would like to order some please contact us!
