March
Waste Week
The next Waste Week campaign will run for the whole of March 2014 - pick the days, week or weeks that suit your school or group best.
Waste Week is a fantastic opportunity to get the whole school learning about waste and thinking about how they can cut down on the amount of waste they produce, as well as how they can reduce the proportion that goes to landfill, by re-using, recycling and composting.
