wewow launch War On Waste campaign – Climate Week 2011

wewow have seized the opportunity to raise awareness of climate change and the positive changes that can be made if companies and individuals work together to reduce their carbon emissions and waste.

During Climate Week 2011, wewow will be launch their WOW campaign:
War On Waste

Throughout the week, wewow will be encouraging local printers and finishers to reduce the amount of waste they produce by finding innovative ways to re-use and upcycle waste materials, such as waste board from print runs.

wewow will take the lead by producing out of waste board, donated to us by a local printer, 3,000 bespoke boxes for a London-based charity.  The charity will be receiving 3,000 high-quality boxes free of charge and wewow will have successfully diverted a large amount of unwanted board from landfill!

wewow’s innovative upcycling will continue throughout the week as we endeavour innovate a number of new packaging solutions which can be produced from waste materials!

This is just the beginning of the WOW campaign as wewow will continue to promote the message of reuse, reduce, recycle throughout the year.

Bradford…The World’s First ‘City of Film’

Having worked with Pace plc to print and duplicate USBs and DVD-R’s as part of Bradford’s bid to become City of Film we were over the moon to hear of Bradford’s success this month.  Bradford is now the world’s first City of Film and only the third city in the UK to be part of UNESCO’s Creative Cities Network.

"Becoming the world's first City of Film is wonderful news for the Bradford district, residents and the local economy. The Council has long recognised the importance of the Creative Industries to the local economy and this accolade will help increase employment opportunities, provide greater international links, boost tourism and raise the district's profile,” said Bradford Council's Executive Member for Environment and Culture, and City of Film Board Member, Councillor Anne Hawkesworth.

  

Having been the location for films such as Billy Liar, Yanks and The Railway Children and supporting Bradford based film makers and school students to create short films it is wonderful to see that Bradford has received recognition for its efforts.
