About us
Our mission & our story
WeCan CIC started as a family effort to stop aluminium cans going needlessly to landfill. What began small has grown into a 200-strong volunteer movement raising thousands for local food banks.
Collect & Recycle
We gather aluminium drink cans from the community, sort and crush them into bales, then send them to scrap yards - turning waste into income.
Fund Food Banks
Every penny raised from the scrap metal goes directly to local food banks, helping families who need it most.
Community Powered
Our volunteers are the heartbeat of WeCan CIC. Whether you collect, sort, or bale - every role matters and everyone is welcome.
Ryan
Founder & Organiser
Ryan started WeCan CIC after seeing how much aluminium was being needlessly landfilled in his area. What began as a family effort has grown into a 200-strong volunteer movement making a real difference.
