Recycle Week

Protecting the Environment is one of my key local priorities for North Norwich, which is why I support Recycle Week launched by resources charity WRAP.

 

Recycle Now is the national recycling campaign for England and Northern Ireland. Recycle Week is Recycle Now's annual recycling event, the one week of the year where retailers, brands, waste management companies, trade associations, governments and the media come together to achieve one goal; to encourage the public into recycling more of the right things, more often.

 

Recycle Week first staged in 2004, and is now the UK’s largest national annual recycling campaign. Last year's campaign was the most successful to date, with over 29 million digital impressions, and 82% of people saying they had changed their behaviour as a result of seeing Recycle Week 2021 content. 

 

This year's Recycle Week is running from Monday 17^th October until Sunday 25^th October, and the theme is ‘Let’s Get Real’ and will challenge perceptions and myths around recycling, and target contamination to improve recycling behaviours.

 

The actions from Recycle Week will contribute towards protecting our environment which is very important for constituents in Norwich North.
