Break free from overconsumption and reuse all year round

Dear Warp It members who are part of the NHS, this post and download have been made especially with you in mind.

Do other people in your organisation appreciate what you do?

Do they know what you do?

Reuse can be a great way to demonstrate the value of your departmental impact.

Telling the stories of benefits of reuse is an incredible vehicle for organisations, allowing you to demonstrate the effectiveness of your department, what you do for the estate, and to boost participation.

Warp It are here to support you every step of the way in your reuse journey.

To do that, we’ve produced some branded sticker templates to make it absolutely clear what is going to happen with your surplus assets- as part of a building move or as part of your reuse campaign.

We welcome Daniel O’Connor to the podium to tell his story...

If you are a frequent reader of the Warp It Blog, you will know that Daniel is the proud founder of Warp It, a man who has dedicated his adult life to resource efficiency and ending the curse of wastefulness. This mantra has led him through a very interesting journey, which he has shared below.

This story is being retold in the hope of giving others a way forward if they are problem solvers, change makers and/ or seeking to be an entrepreneur. 

Imagine you’re planning your reuse scheme and you’ve already got the go-ahead from stakeholders, done a business case, and have organisational support, but, there’s a delay.

Nobody likes delays, such as the IT department taking longer than expected to review something, or a line manager or committee going over details again and again. Regardless of the delay, you know the project is going to go ahead and you are itching to get started. If you’re at this stage in the process, or could perceive it ever happening to you, then you must continue reading.

We have another freebie for you, our wonderful Warp It members!

 This week, we’ve put together some potentially life saving free sticker templates that you can use in and around your estate. Keep reading to learn more...

We are posting this article off the back of a very successful event at the Create Center in Bristol, where we had a fantastic turn-out of Warp It customers, as well as other parties interested in improving their organisational reuse.

We had a great chinwag and shared loads of interesting ideas, with the event starting off by going around the tables introducing ourselves and our roles. We were pleased to welcome friendly visitors from:

We are pleased to welcome Anton Schultz, Social Investment Manager at One Manchester Housing Association, to help provide additional insight about their incredible donation project.

Recently we revealed that we were in the process of asking our community to help us design some amazing visual stimuli for laboratory or science facilities to boost reuse.

There are four main goals of these materials
