Green impact
51Âþ» is taking part in an exciting project called Green Impact. Teams of staff will take part in the Green Impact environmental accreditation scheme, helping them to adopt greener habits in their workplace. Green Impact is run locally by 51Âþ» but managed across more than 50 universities by the National Union Students (NUS).
The project involves students from 51Âþ» by providing student volunteers with special environmental auditing training. Once trained the students then visit Green Impact teams to ensure that the activities have been completed to the recommended standard. Involving students in this way provides both training and practical experience in environmental auditing.
