University of Liverpool embraces reuse with Warp It

Warp It welcome Selina Woolcott from the University of Glasgow as she talks about the Glasgow Asset Share Group.

We opened up the floor to Selina and let her speak freely about her experience of using Warp It. It’s really interesting what she had to say. You can consider this an opinion piece from an expert Warp It member!

Warp It are pleased to welcome Christine McCallum from the University of Queensland to discuss sustainability and the introduction of the Warp It reuse program.

In this interview  we talk about:

• Moving from an email to an online based reuse system or reuse program
• How to get support from across the board before roll out
• How to deliver a pilot with the right number of stakeholders

Are you thinking "How do I set up a reuse system"? Or "How do I set up a reuse system for free"?

In this session we talk to Mike Howroyd from the University of Leeds about the reuse program he developed to trade surplus assets. In my opinion Mike has been leading the way in the public sector around reuse for the last 10 years. Google thinks the same- If you are in the UK and you google "Reuse and University" you will see Mike gets the top spot ahead of any other University (and Warp It!). He was the first one I had seen set up their own internal online platform.

He has been on his own reuse journey and in this article we discuss how to set up a high performing reuse system.You can download the University of Leeds Case Study at the end of this article.

MIke set up his own internal system which ran for 5 years and was very successful he then saw some additional benefits of using Warp it and migrated over to our system in late 2017.
