The Topic was on 'Difficult to Recycle Items' with excellent presentations undertaken by these guest speakers:

SWWRF brings together representatives from local authorities, private organisations, waste partnerships and public authorities based in the South West, who all have a specialist interest in recycling and waste issues.
We meet every three months to share ideas, information and best practice about reducing, reusing and recycling municipal and commercial waste. We also hold an annual conference and develop working groups and partnerships to work on joint projects.
Non-members are welcome to attend the conference at a charge of £50 per person.
