WeShare: Our Community Fund

We Share white cropped
Our WeShare Community Fund distributes £320k annually to local projects and charities. It is run by our people, who champion local causes.

We rely on our communities

We depend on our communities for three main things in order to operate successfully: individuals who dispose of their waste responsibly, a steady pipeline of talented people to join our business, and a diverse network of suppliers and partners who help us deliver our services.

In recognition of this, we launched our WeShare Community Fund with a commitment to allocate £320,000 annually to support donations that are championed by our people. Funding is awarded on a set of criteria based around sustainability, local need, community involvement, value for money and education. It is underpinned by Viridor's purpose:  to build a world where nothing goes to waste.
