Win on Waste Volunteer - Give it a Go!…

Join the Win on Waste Team as a Session Volunteer for National Student Volunteering week - Give it a Go!

Saturday 14th February from 10:15am til 12:15pm

You will help set up for recycling collection, then greet and help people put their items in the correct bins. After the session items get weighed and recorded.
