Zero Waste Week

Recycling Week 2024
This year’s Recycle Week theme is ‘Rescue Me’. The campaign will run from 14 - 20 October 2024, focusing on rescuing recyclable items from the rubbish bin.
Boots and Tesco are sponsoring Recycle Week 2024 and supporting Wrap in their mission to inspire everyone to rescue those recyclables from the rubbish bin!
By recycling at least one extra item as part of our daily recycling routine will make a huge difference!
Net Zero Festival
We're delighted to partner with BusinessGreen's Net Zero Festival for a second year as the sustainability-focused event returns to north London during October this year.
The festival, taking place at the Business Design Centre on 22 and 23 October, will explore the risks and opportunities that will define the coming decade. It provides business leaders and senior sustainability executives with access to inspiring keynote speakers, thought-provoking debates, in-depth case studies, and the chance to network and connect with industry peers.
Visit the website for the agenda, full speaker line-up, and to secure your place. It's set to be bigger and better than ever!
