Struggling to find any useful advice on how to dispose of a swollen phone battery in the UK.

Gov website just links to local council, which has no information on recycling damaged and potentially dangerous batteries.

The nearest recycling centre in walking distance that may potentially accept it does not allow pedestrians, so would have to get two buses to a centre that does.

It's no wonder most folk just chuck it in the bin (and maybe cause fires)

@emseeitch A lot of supermarkets have receptacles to put batteries in.

Where I am batteries can be bagged up and put in to recycling bins (domestic)
