Business Resource Efficiency and Waste (BREW) programme
The Business Resource Efficiency and Waste Minimisation (BREW)
programme provides an opportunity for businesses in the Northwest
to gain commercial success through environmental good practice.
The three-year BREW programme, which commenced in April 2005,
has been developed by the Department for Food and Rural Affairs
(Defra) to return additional landfill tax receipts to businesses to
help support their improvements in the areas of waste management
and resource efficiency.
BREW in the Northwest
The Regional Development Agencies are receiving money to
co-ordinate delivery of the BREW programme at the regional level
and to carry out strategic resource efficiency projects in the
regions.
BREW type activity is firmly established and productive in the
region, with regional initiatives such as ENWORKS, the
Northwest’s environmental business support programme and Envirolink
Northwest, the region’s energy and environmental technologies and
services sector development organisation.
Further information on the BREW programme and details of the
national partner organisations can be found on the Defra
website
