International Office win gold at Green Impact awards ceremony

The Green Impact project is run locally by the University, but managed across several Higher Education Institutions by The Environmental Association for Universities and Colleges (EAUC). As part of the Green Impact scheme this year the International Office has introduced a bin less office to raise awareness of potential recycling opportunities. The office also took part in the University’s Community Challenge initiative and volunteered staff time at Poltimore House where team members lay paths, painted and did garden work. “The International Office is delighted to have won Gold at the Green Impact Awards for the second consecutive year”, says Dr John Withrington, Director of the International Office, “staff have shown dedication and motivation towards all aspects of the initiative and I am in no doubt that the good work prompted by Green Impact will continue to grow.”
