Tender for the provision of Waste Education Services

Tender description

North London Waste Authority (NLWA) is running an extensive waste prevention programme from 1 April 2018 to 31 March 2020 focusing on reducing local authority collected waste in north London. The 2018-20 programme of activity has recently been agreed and will include intensive activity to reduce three priority waste streams: food, furniture and textiles. We are seeking to appoint contractors to provide a Waste Education Programme that cultivates behavioural change amongst pupils, parents and school staff in north London primary and secondary schools and increases knowledge of the waste hierarchy and waste prevention practices that can be embedded into life, complementing the work that NLWA will deliver in 2018/19 with potential extension in 2019/20. Further details of the waste prevention programme of activity for 2018/20 as approved by Authority Members at the February 2018 Authority meeting can be viewed at http://nlwa.gov.uk/docs/2011/13-waste-prevention-plan-2018-20-(web).pdf.
