Welcoming Vertas: Brand New Sponsor & First Host of New Clinics
We are delighted to welcome Vertas who is joining the Global Good community for the first time this year to sponsor the Circular Economy Award.

Brand New Sponsor-led Clinics
This year we are introducing new educational clinics on Zoom for all GGA entrants and, hitting the ground running, Vertas will be hosting the first of these in June. Drawing upon their vast experience in waste management, Mark Horner, Head of Vertas Environmental, will look at how recyclable your waste is and address common misconceptions associated with terms such as ‘recyclable’, ‘biodegradable’ and ‘compostable’ materials. The shocking truth about the carbon footprint of certain products that are transported great distances to be recycled will also be revealed.
In this 60-minute Zoom meeting the audience will be invited to interact with each other and the clinic provider to ask questions, share best practice, skills and ideas.
Invitations will be sent to all entrants after the extended closing date of 29th April.
