An interest in talking about and promoting waste reduction

About the Organisation
Lets Waste Less Volunteers encourage people in their local community to reduce the amount of waste they throw away; this could be via composting, food waste reduction, recycling more, reusing or repairing items or not generating the waste in the first place.
By bringing this message directly to communities we aim to help people on their journey to becoming more sustainable and to take their own small steps to help reduce our environmental impact.
This is funded by Worcestershire County Council and managed by Resource Futures (an independent environmental consultancy, which is part of the B Corp movement).
