About this project

We know that sorting your waste can be confusing! That’s why we want to create an engaging and inspiring waste sorting experience at our site at Torry Battery to maximise our impact on visitors to our site to make the right choices. This means that we will increase our capacity by purchasing the required external and internal bins for all the waste streams we produce at our cafe (glass, mixed recycling and compost, no general waste!) and creating bespoke signage to guide visitors through the experience that inspires behaviour change around their waste disposal habits. This will lower our waste to landfill footprint (we’re aiming for ‘zero’ ahead of the curve!) and teach better habits at home.

Our people carrier transports our service users to the groups and activities which we provide – particularly the children and young people of our Young People’s Sensory Service (YPSS). The funding requested would enable us to replace our current people carrier, now seven years old, with a similar but electric vehicle.

‘Sharp Response’ provides a daily mobile crisis outreach service targeted to those alcohol/drug users deemed to be at highest risk. The service goes to the individual wherever they are, rather than waiting for the individual to come to the service and so we are requesting funds for an electric car to make our service more sustainable.
