A six-year-old boy who collected thousands of sweet tubs to stop them going to landfill has found out what happens to the tubs when they are recycled.

Sweet tubs are not usually recycled by councils so Teddy decided to collect them himself.

With the help of family and friends he collected more than 2,500 plastic tubs which were sent to a special plastic processing plant.

Teddy then had the opportunity to find out what happened to the tubs next.
