Islington Council formally adopted the North London Joint Waste Strategy in September 2025, a 15-year plan for managing waste in collaboration with the North London Waste Authority and seven other boroughs. This strategy prioritises waste reduction, increased recycling, and minimising the environmental impact of waste disposal.

The strategy also focuses on delivering collaborative, community-focused services that provide value for money and maximise social value, according to a story from September 2025. Key performance indicators, such as avoidable food waste, will be used to track the success of these initiatives.

The North London Joint Waste Strategy is a waste management strategy jointly produced by the North London Waste Authority and seven north London boroughs (Islington, Barnet, Camden, Enfield, Hackney, Haringey and Waltham Forest) to set aims and objectives for how they manage waste.
