🎥 60 seconds with SUEZ: What is the circular economy and what does it mean in practice for larger organisations?

The circular economy is about keeping materials and resources in use for as long as possible, reducing waste and making better use of what we already have.

In the latest 60 Seconds with SUEZ, Dr Adam Read, Chief Sustainability and External Affairs Officer at SUEZ, explains what the circular economy means in practice and how larger organisations can turn ambition into action.

❤️ A remarkable story of remembrance, respect and dedication.

On Remembrance Day, we'd like to share an extraordinary story that began with a chance discovery at a Greater Manchester recycling facility, operated by SUEZ on behalf of the Greater Manchester Combined Authority.

What started as the discovery of a First World War medal became a journey to uncover the story of David Farrington, a British soldier who lost his life in October 1914.

Determined that his service would not be forgotten, the team researched his military history and final resting place. More than a century after his death, fellow colleague and member of our Veterans' Network, Chris Cole, travelled to Belgium carrying the medal to pay his respects at David's grave ahead of Remembrance Day.

Today, we remember David Farrington and all those who have served and sacrificed in conflict. We are incredibly proud of the care, commitment, and respect shown by our colleagues in helping preserve this piece of history for future generations.

💚 The power of volunteering in action.

This summer, SUEZ colleagues from across Devon donated 19 volunteer days to help prepare East-the-Water Primary School in Bideford for the new school year.

From clearing overgrown areas and refreshing indoor spaces to repairing decking and servicing more than 40 bikes, the team rolled up their sleeves to help improve the school's facilities for pupils returning after the summer break. 🎨

One of the highlights was seeing our specialist bicycle technicians ensure the school's bikes were safe and ready for use on the popular BMX track, helping children make the most of their outdoor learning and play opportunities.

A huge thank you to everyone who gave their time and skills to support the project. It's a fantastic example of how volunteering can create a lasting impact for local schools and communities. 👏
