Following our successful campaigns in 2017 and 2018 (Pedometer challenge and Eco-friendly cleaning products) which resulted in a Gold Rating at the University Sustainability Awards, Sport & Exercise will continue to support the sustainable and environmental aims of the University by targeting to be single-use plastic bottle free by 2020. As part of this aim we have removed bottle vending from the Pleasance Sport Complex and Gym and encourage members to use a reusable water bottle with our water fountains or our new Yanga Sports water dispenser.
