From Galway Bay FM newsroom- Galway based recycling enterprise, Bounce Back Recycling, has planted 1,000 trees since January.

The firm works to recycle mattresses to reduce the amount of waste going to landfill.

In light of National Tree Week, BBR planted a tree for every booking they had this year to date.

Working with the tree planting initiative, Trees on the Land, BBR planted trees for 13 different projects.

These projects ranged from schools and colleges, to towns and community gardens.
