From 31 March 2027, new Simpler Recycling legislation will affect sole traders, micro businesses and organisations with fewer than 10 employees. These changes will require businesses to separate waste streams and ensure recyclable materials are being managed correctly.
Join Sussex Chamber for a practical and informative webinar designed specifically for small businesses. We'll explain what is changing, what action you need to take, and how to prepare your business in a simple, cost-effective way.
As part of this session, we will also invite attendees to participate in a short breakout room discussion and survey. Your feedback will help us better understand the challenges facing Sussex businesses and identify where further support may be needed.
It's important that businesses understand their responsibilities under the new Simpler Recycling regulations and take steps to prepare early. By staying ahead of the changes, businesses can remain compliant, avoid potential penalties, and put the right processes in place with confidence ahead of the 31 March 2027 deadline.
