Hi Mark, the pods contain both coffee grounds and plastics. They're separated and given another life, with plastics becoming items such as park benches and planters, and coffee is re-purposed to produce fertiliser and biogas. We keep developing new uses so watch this space! 💜

Has anyone else had #Iceland foods take money and then not delivered? Be warned that customer service is shut down so you can’t get it back
I'm proud to be a member of the team. Thanks for this surprise nomination.

I have my bags, coffee and water cups for life. Every little bit helps. Can anyone let me know the nearest plastic free shopping is to #Croydon
⌚️Every minute, one million plastic bottles are bought around the world, and that figure is expected to go up 20% by 2021. 📈 Have you #GotTheBottle to prevent #plasticpollution ? 🌍 #NationalRefillDay
I have just sent 4 bags of my @DolceGustoUK coffee pods for recycling. It would be great to get some feedback on what a couple of hundred pods could become

Thank you for the @yourcroydon @croydonhealth support and care my family get in the Borough
Gary Mabbutt shares with the Shadow Health Secretary @JonAshworth how quickly diabetes complications can happen. “You never think it’s going to happen to you, until it does. But I feel fortunate to have received the care I did.” @KingsCollegeNHS

In the 1990s, we showed that improving blood glucose & blood pressure could drastically reduce complications in people with #T2D. Today, this trial is recognised as a major step forward in reducing the harm #T2D does: ow.ly/12HA50ieTtm #ResearchFriday
