developing obsolete film cartridge

i have a film cartridge about 15 years old which are no longer used. its from a throw away camera. it is a 'snappit film' and says process c 41 on the casing whatever that means. i was wondering if anyone knows a specialist who could develop this for me, preferably in the uk.
thanks

If you don't get an answer here you might try the forums at

c41 is the standard colour negative formula - which means when you develop the film you will get a reel of colour negative - which will then have to be printed.

Processing c 41 is a doddle if you've got the right equipment. You'll need to find someone with an adjustable spiral for their developing tank - and then set the two faces of the spiral at the exact width of the film - which will be the width of the cassette minus a 'little bit'. If you are sure that you've set the spiral correctly - then under complete dark room conditions :- remove the film from the cassette, load the film into the spiral, put the spiral in the tank - and place the lid on the tank (you can now turn the lights on). If you've got an old film from another cassette practice with that - in the light several times.
Then - with some c 41 developing solution develop the film as per the instructions - rinse - and then fix the film as per instructions - rinse lots of times. Don't open the tank until all this is finished.

Hang film to dry in a dust proof place.

Then get someone to print the film for you.

I once processed a similar film that was about twenty years old which had been stored in a loft since the day the photos were taken. Considering the conditions it turned out amazingly well, just lacking somewhat in contrast. As #2 says, C41 is normal colour negative process.

126 format?

Strange!

I have a Rolleicord with a 126 film in it that is 18 years old.

Must get it developed and get a new roll.
