Islington scheme launched to help businesses recycle

2 February, 2010

ISLINGTON Chamber of Commerce has launched a project to deal with business waste in the London borough.

The project, funded by the Islington Strategic Partnership and supported by Voluntary Action Islington, was launched in January.

It aims to increase awareness of recycling and reuse in the borough and provide free independent support to businesses that want to recycle their waste.

The service is aimed at meeting the needs of individual businesses, social enterprises and charities. It will offer advice and guidance and recommend suitable recycling services.

The scheme is headed by Islington Chamber of Commerce’s new Project Officer, Clare Matheson, who has spent seven years in the waste-management industry.

She said: “As Project Officer my aim will be to work with companies in the borough to look at what their waste streams are, what they currently recycle and what they want to recycle, whilst taking into account issues such as onsite waste storage space and cost.

“It’s vital to look at what’s realistic and to help them to achieve this so that we can increase Islington’s recycling rates and make recycling easier and more cost-effective for businesses.”

A launch event will be held at Sadler’s Well on 10th March.
