Waste is one of the biggest barriers to the whole notion of sustainability. We need to change the way we think about waste in the future. This event has something for everyone concerned about the issues involved in Kirklees.

In the morning, members of the community and not for profit sector are invited to attend a series of presentations and workshops highlighting local examples of proactive waste minimisation, recycling, and circular economic innovation. Join us to stimulate plans, ideas and partnerships and help provide solutions to the future of waste in Kirklees.

After a networking lunch, the afternoon session will have a more commercial theme outlining the National Waste Strategy and the implications for Kirklees. Here the focus will be on exploring the ways in which businesses can facilitate movement towards a local circular economy to refine production, reduce waste and increase employment in ways that benefit everyone in Kirklees.
