ZWIN (Zero Waste Initiative): About ZWIN

The Zero Waste Initiative (ZWIN) is now a partnership project with REN (Richmond Environment Network) and EcoAction. EcoAction is the community-based part of Richmond Council's Recycling & Environment Section.

ZWIN evolved out of the Richmond-upon-Thames Local Agenda 21 action plan for a sustainable future and has been up and running as a practical project since 1999. ZWIN aims to help organisations in the borough of Richmond to develop sound environmental policies in order to reduce energy and water consumption, reduce waste production, encourage recycling and the efficient use of resources. This is achieved through free environmental assessments, which are carried out on-site by trained volunteers. Where ZWIN's recommendations are put into practice, organisationss can benefit from reduced operating costs and improved environmental performance.

ZWIN is now based at the Sheen Lane Centre 74 Sheen Lane SW14 8LP and the project is run entirely by volunteers.
