Brixton Upcycle Project for businesses: second workshop 10 August
It has been a few months since the Brixton Upcycle Project workshop on transforming waste into opportunities for local businesses. Andrea Speranza – Brixton Low Carbon Zone’s Waste Prevention Adviser, who set up the project – has been busy exploring ideas with some of the participants. Now she is inviting Brixton businesses to a second free workshop on Wednesday 10 August, 3 -5.30 pm, at the Ritzy. An opportunity to focus on putting a few of those ideas into practice!
Christian Dillon from the Pallet Project will be inspiring us to reuse Brixton wood waste by sharing his successful experience in East London: eastlondonfurniture.co.uk

Virginia Nimarkoh, a local resident, will be presenting an enterprise proposal based on food waste from Brixton businesses that could potentially benefit the Brixton community in different ways.
Following up on Niina (The Green Workshop) and Anne’s (Cornercopia) ideas of composting at Brixton Village market, Pawel Ryczan, Lambeth Recycling Officer, will show how to make a wormery using recycled materials.
There’ll also be information available on a new waste prevention loan fund for businesses committed to waste minimisation, and other funding opportunities to share. The workshop is an opportunity to meet and network with other local businesses. So please come along and contribute to building a zero waste Brixton together!
