Bristol Waste Company

All our Bristol Open Doors slots for next weekend are now full...
But if you haven’t managed to bag a place with us, we recommend checking out some of our friends and partners, including Children's Scrapstore Bristol, City Hall or the Create Centre!

Friends of the Earth will be running a series of projects to make our towns and cities 10 times greener over the coming months.
So if you or your community would like to get involved, apply to 10xGreener and you could win £500 to make it happen...

"It’s all about being gentle with yourself and working on improving the quality of your life rather than thinking you must deprive yourself of certain things.”
University of Bristol student Elsa Webb tells us all about her ‘zero waste’ life for Zero Waste Week:

“Out of all of the environmental issues out there, plastic pollution is very much in our hands to change.”
Another Bristol hero to celebrate for #ZeroWasteWeek, Natalie Fee, Bristol activist and founder of not-for-profit City to Sea!

Play your part and help us keep the city ship shape and Bristol fashion! Be part of a community litter pick tomorrow at Avonmouth Community Centre, 10am -12pm.
After the litter pick, join for free drinks and cakes at the community centre ☕ 🍰 🚯

Feeling the #ZeroWasteWeek love! Bristol is home to so many Zero Waste Heroes, including Bedminster's Zero Green.
We paid them a visit in March shortly after they opened to find out more about this packaging-free shop...

Thanks to all of those who popped into the Greenway Centre today to make creations out of recycling materials with us. Lots of fun was had!
