Who we are
Waste Watch is a national, independent, not-for-profit organisation and a registered charity.
We were set up in 1987 with a mission to make waste issues mainstream and to encourage waste reduction, reuse and recycling.
Over 20 years later, the landscape has changed dramatically and we are proud to have been a major driving force behind the shift in public, political and media opinion.
Today we work to show how making better use of our resources, including waste, energy and water, is good for the environment in general.
We are funded by a variety of organisations and individuals who share our vision. As a charity we are governed by a board of trustees drawn from business, academia and the environment sector.
