We are excited to share the news that we have scooped the award for Environmental Impact at the Broadland and South Norfolk Business Awards 2020. This award was sponsored by UEA’s Low Carbon Innovation Fund

The judges were impressed with:
  • the impact that our repair of household goods has on the environment
  • the reduction to landfill and waste as a result
  • Our plans to further develop our Ditchingham community using alternative heat and power solutions

Cecile Roberts, Chief Executive – Emmaus Norfolk & Waveney says

“We are incredibly proud to receive this award for the work we do here at Emmaus Norfolk & Waveney. Recycling and reusing is a core part of the work of our social enterprises, and reducing our environmental footprint shapes everything we do as a charity.

“From diverting items away from landfill, selling them in our shops instead, or recycling metal items in our new forge at our Ditchingham community, we are always looking at new ways to continue to reduce the mark we leave on the environment.”
