Reuse Network Annual Conference sponsor spotlight: Viridor

It’s been a huge pleasure working with Viridor over the past two years, and we are thrilled that they have chosen to sponsor the Reuse Network Annual Conference awards for 2023! 

This year’s awards are a real opportunity to celebrate the incredible organisations, volunteers, staff and projects that have continued to thrive despite a challenging year.   

The awards that are up for grabs this year are Volunteer of the Year, Innovative Project of the Year and Reuse Organisation of the Year and we can’t wait to recognise our members at the prestigious ceremony. 

Courtesy of Viridor, the three shortlisted volunteers will be invited to attend the conference and Gala Dinner, and stay overnight, free of charge and will get to find out who the winner of the award is, in person. It is thanks to Viridor’s sponsorship that these volunteers will get to experience the conference for themselves. 

Why Viridor? 

Since 2022, Reuse Network and Viridor have worked together through a strategic partnership which has provided vital support to Reuse Network through funding, resources and expertise. The continued partnership, which was renewed in 2023, demonstrates Viridor’s commitment to environmental sustainability and its dedication to supporting initiatives that reduce waste and promote circular economy principles.   

What to Expect 

The Reuse Network Annual Conference will serve as a platform for sharing insights, strategies, and success stories in the field of reuse, making it a crucial event for those committed to building a sustainable future. Here’s what you can expect on the day: 

• Inspiring plenaries: based on the feedback we have gained from our members during our series of regional roadshows earlier this year, we have built a programme centred around what matters most to reuse charities. We’ll be hearing from experts from funding, local government, marketing, social value and more. 
• Interactive workshop: Put your questions to a panel of marketing experts and learn how to elevate your impact and craft an effective presence both online and offline.  
• Networking opportunities: connect with like-minded individuals and organisations passionate about the power of reuse. 
• A diverse exhibition hall: explore the latest products and services from organisations who have aligned themselves with the Reuse Network values and mission and are dedicated to helping reuse organisations play
