These ideas recycle

An association founded in 2006 calling itself "Iddées" - sounds like good Ideas - now has 11 permanent employees and 76 on training courses for insertion into the local workforce. Based in Caussade, with branches at Lafrancaise and Lauzerte, the association recycles many items collected from dechetteries or uses such items to train students to repair or understand how things work, especially the electrical and electronic things we throw away.
The association also has workshops for wood, sewing, computers, petrol engines and bicycles. As well as looking after green spaces around the towns.
Mains Tendues82 passes on to Iddees some of its items collected which require repair or are more suitable to be used by them. So almost no item is useless - so much can be recycled.
