Waste Management

​​​​​​​​​​Waste Management participating in Go Green week, Recycling game and Waste Pledge Tree​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​

​​

The University continues to promote the message of waste minimisation; re-use and recycling by participating in the annual Fresher's​ Fayre and Go Green Week. Key messages to support this are jointly delivered by Environment & Estates Staff alongside our primary Waste Management partner Biffa. Internal Campus Operations meetings and forums are used to ensure that all users of the University are aware of the Sustainable Policy and are fully aware of our recycling targets and facilities in order to achieve them​.
