Camden Council also committed to investing in the circular economy and reducing waste in September 2025, supporting local businesses and community initiatives.
The Reduction and Recycling Plan outlines strategies for reducing waste and increasing recycling rates. Tower Hamlets Council's plan, approved by its Cabinet in September 2023, sets out 31 areas of action for 2023-2025 to drive waste reduction and improve recycling performance.
