Leisure & Culture Dundee presented with environmental accolade

The National Award for Environmental Excellence® recognises the environmental performance of their Leisure and Sports services at ten audited sites, both indoor and outdoor facilities, including swimming pools, Dundee Ice Arena and Camperdown Wildlife Centre.

Following visits to Leisure & Culture Dundee sites, staff were commended for their work in improving waste infrastructure, engaging young people in sport and forging partnerships with the local community.

Graham Wark, Head of Leisure and Sport Services, said: “We are absolutely committed to improving our environmental impact, so we are delighted that our efforts have been recognised by Keep Scotland Beautiful in this way. We are also really pleased that our partnerships in our communities and work with young people across the Leisure and Sport service have been highlighted, as these are areas we have been working hard to develop further. Our aim will now be to improve our score and achieve the Gold award in the next audit.”
