A Wasteless Britain?

Sustainable Bridgnorth

Sustainable Bridgnorth are organising a virtual conference on  ‘A Wasteless Britain?’ as part of this year's ‘Plastic Free July'.

'A Wasteless Britain' will bring together speakers from across the waste and recycling sector to provide an update of the exciting opportunities which are taking place at both a national and local level. Find out what really happens to waste and recycling in Shropshire as we hear from waste management company, Veolia. Hannah Osman of Refill Wales will be joining us to discuss the increasing refill and reuse opportunities that we all can get involved in. We will also be joined by Ludlow (Shropshire) MP, and Chair of the Environment Audit Committee, Phillip Dunne, to discuss upcoming Government policy reforms which aim to reduce waste, encourage waste prevention and reuse, and increase recycling levels. This online event will take place via Microsoft Teams and and you will receive joining instructions when you register.Part of #PlasticFreeJuly, see our <a href="https://www.facebook.com/sustainablebridgnorth/" target="_blank" data-msys-clicktrack="0" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer">Sustainable Bridgnorth Facebook</a> page for more details!
