'Coca-Cola' Talent from Trash has been a big success with Nottingham Forest since launching in early September. The innovative programme rewards Football League clubs and their fans for pledging to recycle more and raising household waste recycling levels in their communities. So far, over 1,734 Forest fans have made the pledge helping to raise £5,700 to date for Nottingham Forest to spend on youth development.

Nottingham Forest Press Officer, Amy Sutton, said: "We've had a great response from Forest fans so far but there is still plenty of time left to pledge your support. Every pledge made on www.talent-from-trash.com helps raise funds for the reds youth development scheme, so please keep up your support."

There's still time to raise more cash for The Reds. Fans can win up to £18,000 for Nottingham Forest to spend on youth development if they pledge to recycle more at www.talent-from-trash.com  One lucky fan of a Football League club will also win an extra £10,000 for their club and £5,000 for themselves by pledging their commitment online.

There are 13 clubs taking part in 'Coca-Cola' Talent from Trash: Accrington Stanley, Brentford, Burnley, Cardiff City, Coventry City, Huddersfield Town, Norwich City, Nottingham Forest, QPR, Southampton, Swansea City, Swindon Town and Wycombe Wanderers.

'Coca-Cola' has been the proud sponsor of the Football League since 2004 and recently extended its sponsorship deal to run until the 2009/10 season.
