Environment

TAPE2TAPE EVENTS COMMITMENT TO SUPPORT THE ENVIRONMENT

Here at Tape2Tape we are committed to ensuring our events are sustainable and have minimum impact on the environment.

A single conference attendee can generate up to 1.89kg of waste each day they attend an event,1.29kg of which goes directly to landfill. 

The statement above really does hit home for us! We are mindful that events can cause litter, our aim is to be a litter free race. This sounds ambitious but with the help of all who attend we really can make this happen! To be a litter free race we need to encourage recycling to reduce waste. To help achieve this we aim to ensure that we reduce the amount of single use items at the event. This includes all our meal and drink providers. We encourage our race participants and attendees to be litter/waste free by being mindful to dispose of items properly, recycling where possible. Our aims are to ensure that more is being recycled at our events.

We encourage runners not to bring single use plastic bottles to drink on the route, we have adequate water stations, all with recyclable paper cups. If runners do carry a bottle, we ask that they please try to ensure that it is a reusable one.

Some of the other ways that we ensure we maintain a positive environmental impact and ensure our events are sustainable, they include:

• Working closely with the local authority at North Lincolnshire Council to assist us in recycling all race packaging
• Using recyclable paper cups at all water stations
• The bottle of water provided at the finish is made from 100% re-cycled plastic
• Bins for recycling bottles will be at the finish area
• Any discarded clothing left on the start line by runners is collected and then donated to a local charity who receive funds for the recyclable weight
• No paper material is posted out to participants – key information is emailed out by a full colour PDF race brochure
• We do not give away post-race goody bags that containing paper items/leaflets etc
• We endeavour to use an electric lead car in the race to reduce emissions around the race route
• Spare event medals and some of the left-over event t-shirts are donated to a local charity to reuse or recycle for funds
• We encourage runners to bring along old trainers, medals and clothing that will be recycled by a local charity
• Using local service providers
• All our refreshment providers are required to use recyclable, cups, trays, etc.
• Encouraging car sharing where is safe and appropriate to do so
• Encourage local people to walk or cycle to the event

We continue to look at ways we can improve our environmental footprint. Maybe you are a business who has some advice or may be interested in getting involved in the event. We would welcome some support/sponsorship for a specific recycling initiative at the finish area, this would greatly assist us in our aim to be a litter free event. If you would like to get involved, please do not hesitate to contact nicola@tape2tape.co.uk or Tel: 01472 824894.
