Welcome to the Islington Community Map.

Our map can help you find places ranging from local community centres to handy refill shops, as well as volunteer gardening opportunities. Not to mention where to recycle everything from batteries to water filter cartridges!

Please let us know what you’d find useful (or if you spot anything that needs to be changed) - it’s a map for the community by the community!

Just click on the items you want to recycle or one of the other categories and the locations will appear on the map. Clicking on the coloured dot will bring up more detailed information about that site.

Islington Council offers home recycling for most residents: glass, paper, cardboard, aluminium, hard plastics, food waste and garden waste - all collected from your home. Check out their helpful A-Z of recycling which tells you what you can and can’t recycle – everything from printer cartridges to polystyrene, toothbrushes to garden furniture.

Other items
Disposable plastic cups and sandwich cartons CAN go in your recycling bin. But cups that appear to be made of cardboard/paper are really mixed with plastic and cannot be recycled!
