THE GEDLING OFFER
We Want to HELP make Gedling SCHOOLS PLastic Clever
As residents of Gedling, we want to help our local schools reduce their use of unnecessary single-use plastics.
FREE WORKSHOPS for schools
Any school in the Gedling area can take advantage of three workshop options we have designed to help schools work through the Plastic Clever journey. Because of the ‘Gedling Offer’, local schools can book these workshops for free.
A bit about the workshops
- The workshops would be bespoke to your school and aim to help you achieve a level within the Plastic Clever School scheme.
- Workshops are delivered by a trained teacher.
- Where possible feature Amy and Ella, (the founders of the charity Kids Against Plastic and creators of Plastic Clever Schools), in person or via a video link.
- Workshops are FREE to Gedling schools.
