We are very pleased to report that as a result of our recycling and waste management programme, implemented together with Recycling Lives on two recent construction projects, we supported the delivery of more than 700 meals to vulnerable communities across Lancashire and Cumbria.

Christian Godfrey, BES Site Operations Manager comments: “As a business we understand the importance of managing our impact on the environment and society. Working with Recycling Lives not only ensures environmental benefits from their recycling and waste management services, but their unique model also allows for improving lives of individuals across the UK. I am very pleased with what we’ve achieved together over the last months."

Recycling Lives is a national recycling and waste management business with a unique model, using its services to support charitable programmes delivered by the Recycling Lives Charity. Working with the Charity it creates Social Value by rehabilitating offenders through training and employment; supporting homeless men through stable accommodation and opportunities for training and employment; and supporting community groups by redistributing surplus food to ensure they can feed vulnerable groups.
