Recycling department caused 140 000 loss and faces such challenges as inconsistent sources of
materials which may be low quality, quantity and process ability.

Plastic and paper is crushed and sold, however 20 tonnes of disks at the moment are stock piled
with no purpose.

entrepreneurial skills from a small sustainable business.

reduces the quantity of land needed and can be built within urban city areas.

The costs of vertical farming are significantly lessened with no need for heavy machinery to be
used.
There may be a possible connection to an entrepreneur who ran a similar business out of the
Hive a few years ago.

Creative Awards

itself.
Nottingham City Council are setting up an advisory board and creating a business proposal for
the longer term future of the project. They would like our support on the advisory board and to
look over the business proposal to see what we think, they are happy for us to take a more
active role or act as an interested third party advisor.
