Last week’s session of the Thrive Programme with Matthew Jenkins from Dream and Leap was nothing short of empowering! 💡 We dove deep into the intricacies of career development, focusing on how to climb the career ladder while navigating the unique challenges faced by non-dominant groups. Here's a quick recap of the key insights we explored together: 🔑 Understanding Career Journeys: We explored what career journeys truly look like, highlighting the different stages of career development and how they shape career progression. Whether you're just starting out or aiming for the next level, understanding these stages is key to navigating your path effectively. 💪 Leveraging Your Strengths and Embracing Diversity: Participants learned to identify their core strengths and areas for growth. We discussed how to turn diversity into a powerful asset, rather than viewing it as a barrier. Embracing what makes you different can be the very thing that sets you apart and accelerates your career success. 🌟 Rockstars vs. Superstars: We discussed the difference between Rockstars and Superstars at work. By identifying which one you are, our team were able to better understand their career trajectory and set the right pace for their professional growth. A big thank you to all who participated – your passion and insights were truly inspiring! We’re excited to continue this journey of growth. Interested in joining the Thrive Programme?

Great session on West London Waste Authority's 'Waste as a Resource' initiative! Key takeaways included: ♻️ WLWA is developing a new strategic model that views waste as a valuable resource. ♻️ With a 65% recycling target, they’re aiming to double recycling and composting while halving waste levels. ♻️ The initiative focuses on five key areas: citizen perception, organisational excellence, increased access, data-driven efficiency, and reuse. ♻️ WLWA is working on creating a 'single source of truth' to build trust and promote data-driven decision-making, with scenario planning and trend analysis as key tools. ♻️ Understanding waste composition is essential for treating it as a resource, and WLWA is taking action to get a complete picture. ♻️ Research into citizen perceptions is driving better segmentation and targeting for more effective engagement. ♻️ They’re also focused on social value and reuse to shift customer attitudes. ♻️WLWA also found that low food waste recycling service utilisation is a major barrier to higher recycling rates.

On Monday, West London Waste Authority visited the impressive Renew Hub in Manchester! We got to see their repair workshops in action, where everything from bikes to electronics and furniture gets a second life. Check out their online shops on EBay and shopify! In the afternoon, we stopped by one of their on-site Renew shops located at a Household Reuse and Recycling Centre (HRRC). The shop supports local charities by selling unwanted quality items which otherwise may have gone to waste!

Having a fantastic visit to the Renew Hub at Trafford, Manchester today with the team from West London Waste Authority! ♻️ It’s inspiring to see such a large-scale operation dedicated to reuse and recycling—so much innovation and creativity in one place! 🌍 And… I might be going home with a few purchases of my own! 🛍️ From upcycled bikes to beautiful reused furniture, this place has it all. It’s a reminder that reuse and recycle aren’t just buzzwords, they’re the keys to a sustainable future. Grateful for this experience, and excited to bring back some of these ideas. Onward to a greener, more resourceful tomorrow! #Reuse #Recycle #Sustainability #WasteReduction #WestLondonWaste #RenewHub #Manchester #CircularEconomy
