West Sussex Food Waste Posters
This set of visually engaging posters supports schools in promoting correct food waste recycling through clear, consistent messaging. Designed for display in key areas such as dining halls, classrooms and waste stations, the posters provide simple guidance on what can and cannot go into food waste bins, helping to reduce contamination and improve recycling outcomes.
Using bold visuals and concise messaging, the posters reinforce key behaviours such as separating food from packaging and making quick, correct decisions at the point of disposal. Messages such as “Food only” and “No packaging” are designed to be understood instantly, supporting effective behaviour change in busy school environments.
The set can be used as part of a wider whole-school approach, complementing assemblies, activities and student-led campaigns. Suitable for both primary and secondary settings, the posters can be adapted or selected to match age group and context.
