At Sanctuary we are committed to reducing our environmental footprint. That's why we are constantly thinking of new ways we can do our part to help you do your part. Batteries have notoriously been "difficult" to recycle, you can't put them in normal bins so you end up collecting a bunch in some tupperware with no idea what to do with them. 

As a result, we now offer battery recycling! All you have to do is pop your used batteries in a box supplied at your accommodation. You will likely find this box in your reception but if not, you can ask reception to find out where the box is. From there, we will do the hard work and make sure they get recycled the right way!

Why is it important to recycle batteries?

Over time, the chemicals and heavy metals in the batteries can leak out and contaminate soil and water. This can harm plants, animals, and humans who depend on these natural resources. By recycling batteries, we can prevent these harmful substances from polluting the environment. Instead, we can extract the raw materials and forward them to manufacturing companies for reuse. This also brings down the cost of new batteries. As a result, recycling conserves resources, reduces pollution, and contributes to the economy all in one go!
