Recycling and waste prevention events
Find out about events we are running or attending and how to volunteer to help run our events.
Event and volunteer bookings
Throughout West Sussex we have a team of passionate waste and recycling volunteers and advisors. They attend public and private events to promote waste prevention and are keen to answer questions about what can and can't be recycled across the county.
Our team have lots of information and ideas to inspire you to consider what you throw away and try and find alternatives.
Our waste and recycling events calendar lists the events that we will be attending in the coming months, and that are open to the public.
If you or your organisation would like us to attend an event or provide a talk to a group, please contact us. You can also follow us on social media for up-to-date information on recycling and waste, and hints and tips from our advisers.
