Following successful reduce and reuse campaigns earlier in the year, the first ever Manchester-wide recycle week took place earlier in October. This was run as a partnership between The University of Manchester, Manchester Metropolitan University, Manchester Student Homes and Manchester City Council.

The collective aim was to increase recycling rates and to raise awareness and knowledge across the student, staff and local community networks.

The University’s Waste and Recycling webpages display recycling videos where you can learn about how we manage our waste, and how you can help on a day-to-day basis. Alternatively, you can visit our Environmental Sustainability waste webpages for more general information on waste and recycling.

Please contact the Environmental Sustainability Team for further information about recycling on campus.
