Conference

Bin there, done that?

Presented by Martin Doherty, Belfast City Council; Claire McCallum, Bryson Recycling

Belfast City Council and Bryson Recycling are leading the way when it comes to putting household and office waste to good use. This workshop will explain what happens to all our recycled bits and pieces.

Claire and Martin will also offer some tips on how voluntary and community organisations can effectively recycle the stuff we no longer need.

This workshop is part of NICVA’s Annual Conference - Building Tomorrows World – which has a great programme of speakers and workshops plus information stands and exhibitions to allow participants to find information that is relevant to them and their organisations.

Exhibitors will include Dublin based organisation ENFO with information on sustainable living, Action Renewables, Belfast City Council, Energy Savings Trust, WWF, Carbon Trust, Tools for Solidarity and Asset Management Ireland.

If you haven’t seen Al Gores amazing film An Inconvenient Truth you can grab a cup of fair trade coffee and watch it in a side room where it will be playing all day. If you are feeling more energetic you can make your own smoothie using cycle power. If the conference inspires you, confuses you or worries you, you can record your thoughts in our very own diary room.
