Story
We’re back for our third consecutive year supporting the incredible charity WasteAid, and in 2026 we’re setting our most ambitious target yet: £10,000.
Throughout the year we’ll be taking on a series of charity events to raise funds and awareness, and we’re kicking things off on Wednesday 25th February, when the Ecosurety team competes in the Bristol Business Fives Charity Football Tournament. We’ll be up against 17 other teams, all fighting for the grand prize for our chosen charity.
This page will be updated with every challenge, milestone, and fundraising event as the year unfolds, so stay tuned!
Why We Support WasteAid
WasteAid’s vision is simple but powerful: A world where waste causes no harm, and where people are empowered to recover its value.
Since 2021, WasteAid has delivered 25 programme interventions across 10 countries, positively impacting nearly 1.4 million people.
Their work helps to:
• Build inclusive, resilient circular economies
• Create and support green jobs
• Reduce pollution and improve public health
• Protect the environment for future generations
The Global Waste Crisis and Why It Matters
The urgency is real:
• 1 in 3 people globally lack access to basic waste services
• 9 million people die each year from diseases linked to waste mismanagement
• Poor waste management drives climate change, poverty, and plastic pollution
• Communities without waste services often have no choice but to burn or dump waste, harming people and ecosystems
WasteAid tackles these challenges by working directly with communities, providing training, infrastructure, and tools to turn waste into opportunity and sustainable income.
