Job Advert
19 August 2010Our manager has taken a tough decision and decided it is time for someone else to take the ReUse Organisation on to the next stage of its existence. So, we’re looking to replace him and fast! He is with us until October 15 but the closing date for applications is September 3. Click the link below to get the job advert and if you think you are the person for the job, or know someone that is, then follow the adverts instructions and we wish you the best of luck.

6th Anniversary Party
3 July 2010Well we survived our party! A great time was had and a full report will follow later. But we wanted to share some pictures of the evening with you. There’s a couple here and the rest can be accessed by clicking this link.
Thanks again to all who came – customer, social welfare partners, friends etc. Thanks to our guest speakers – John Swinney MSP (Cabinet Sec for Finance & Sustainable Growth); Councillor Alan Grant (Environment Convener for Perth & Kinross Council); Lt Cols Alan and Alison Burns (Salvation Army East Scotland Regional Leaders). And thanks to all who offer support to this project in whatever way that may be.

6th Anniversary Media
30 June 2010As part of our anniversary celebrations, we are very grateful to the local media for their continued support. As such, you can hear our manager, Daniel Rous, live on Perth FM (listen online at www.perthfm.co.uk) at around 10.25am on Thursday 1 July. We’ll podcast the recording on this blog as soon as we get the files. Also, Tay FM (listen online at www.tayfm.co.uk) are carrying out prerecorded interviews with staff which will be used in their news bulletins all day on Friday 2 July.
Also, at our celebratory event, photographers from the Perthshire Advertiser and The Courier will be with us to take pictures of the event, along with our own photographer too. We’ll upload those as soon as possible too.
Without local support from the community and the media, we would not be where we are today so, again, a huge thankyou to everyone.

6th Anniversary Celebrations
30 June 2010Join us at our warehouse in Kilda Place, Perth, on Friday 2 July from 5-7pm, as we celebrate our 6th anniversary. There’ll be a buffet, the official launch of our new logo and website, news of future plans, plus guest speakers: John Swinney MSP; Environment Convener Councillor Alan Grant (Perth & Kinross Council); Lieut-Col Alan Burns (The Salvation Army Scotland Secretary). Join us as we say thankyou to the Perth & Kinross communities for your support over the last 6 years.
