Green starts here – 2026

Here’s to sustainable eating, drinking, and living on campus – and beyond.
As we kick off 2026, we’re excited to share our Green Starts Here 2026 campaign, celebrating the positive impact our Â鶹Æƽâ°æ cafes have made and continue to make. 
Expect sustainable food and drink giveaways, and events that support our journey as a Fairtrade University. From locally sourced ingredients to reusable cups and plant-based options, we’re proud to support greener choices for our campus community.
Here’s to a greener year ahead – we can’t wait to share what we’ve been working on.
