Bemerton Estate Recycling Transformation

About the project

Islington Council is committed to making recycling as easy and convenient as possible for our residents on estates. We believe recycling facilities on the Bemerton (north) estate don't offer you enough recycling points or enough capacity for you to recycle everything that you can.

We have developed proposals for improving recycling facilities across the estate and welcome your views on these proposals. These proposals have been developed in partnership with your local housing officers and caretakers following a number of site visits. The improvement proposals include:

• Increased number of recycling bins on the estate to ensure there is always enough room for recycling.
• Creation of new and convenient to get to recycling areas including for food waste, textiles and small electrical items.
• Co-location of recycling and food waste bins.
• Installation of new accessible bins for residents with disabilities.
• Improved signs with more information for residents.

Improvement works will be fully funded and delivered in this year's round of the Thriving Neighbourhoods Estate Investment Programme and will not be recharged to residents.

Get involved

We want to hear from you. Please take a few moments to review the proposals in the 'Supporting Documents' section on this page and complete the recycling survey below.

This will help us understand your views about recycling and help us to get these recycling improvement proposals right.

If you have any questions, comments or suggestions, you can contact us via e-mail at Nicole.Blagoeva@islington.gov.uk

This consultation will be open to contributions until Tuesday 10 October 2023
