The system allows for resources to be shared amongst the University or amongst schools and charities in the local area. This helps reduce waste, therefore reducing carbon emissions, whilst saving money.

This year alone, by using WARPit, users have saved over £18,298 and 8,337.94kg of carbon emissions. A variety of items can be uploaded and claimed on WARPit, including furniture, office supplies and stationery.

Sign up now to WARPit. Once logged in, staff can then browse and upload to the site. Next time you are ready to throw something away, or buy something for the office, think – can I WARPit?
