Green businesses, organisations and individuals who have helped reduce waste and improve recycling rates in the past 18 months are invited to enter the National Recycling Awards 2006.
Now in their eighth year, the National Recycling Awards are open to any organisation, community group or company that is affected by recycling, plays an active part in the recycling process or is
involved in the production chain of recycled products.
Winners will be presented with their awards at a ceremony at the Bournemouth International Centre on 15 November 2006.

The Awards are aimed at rewarding good practice and creativity, as well as developing a network of people who can provide advice to others who may be
adopting similar initiatives.
This year a new category has been added – Electrical and Electronic Recycler of the Year – to reflect the increasing legislative importance of the re-use, reprocessing and recycling of electrical goods. It is open to all aspects of the supply chain from manufacturers and reprocessors to local authorities and community groups.
A wide range of other categories are available to reward retail recycling initiatives, commitment to health and safety, local authority achievements, innovative community projects, successful information campaigns and unsung heroes of the recycling world.
Entries to all 13 categories should cover the period 1 January 2005 to 25 August 2006. The closing date for entries is 25 August 2006, although nominations for the Lifetime Achievement Award will be accepted until 7 September 2006.
