Waterbeach Waste Education Centre is a free to access educational service, which aims to increase understanding of waste issues and encourage actions to reduce its impact on the world around us.

We offer:
- Visits to Waterbeach Waste Education Centre and Waste Management Park (currently suspended due to Covid-19 restrictions)
- Outreach visits to educational establishments and community groups
- Attendance at community events
- Online workshops and webinars
- Downloadable resources
- Advice on waste related issues
All our waste education services are free to access and use.
Education Centre visits update
We have closed our Waste Education Centre in Waterbeach due to Covid-19. We are hoping to re-open in due course when restrictions allow. If you would like further information on the site tours or would like us to notify you when we are due to open the Waste Education Centre, please email Jonathan.Crisp@cambridgeshire.gov.uk.
Book a free recycling workshop
As we can't have visitors to our Education Centre due to Covid-19 restrictions, we have put together fun and engaging workshops for schools, community groups and businesses to learn about what happens to household waste and how we can all do more to reduce, reuse and recycle.
Our workshops are free to attend and we can tailor the content to suit individual group needs.
Taking place between Monday and Friday, we can deliver:
- Online workshops over Skype, Zoom or Microsoft Teams
- Outreach visits in person at your school or organisation's premises
Our workshops are designed with Covid-19 safety measures in place.
