## People from across Hampshire are invited to view behind the scenes look at one of our facilities

### Join us at one of our 2017 Wonder Days and find out!

Veolia invites visitors from across the county to come along and discover what happens at our waste management facilities. Behind the scenes tours and activities offer an insight into the entire integrated network of our recycling and recovery operations and the importance of disposing of your waste properly.

Tours of the facilities, which run throughout the day, are conducted by the facility managers and their teams. Richard Gledhill, manager of the Marchwood Energy Recovery Facility said: “The Wonder Day is a great way to find out what happens to your waste and take a look behind the scenes of Marchwood’s Energy Recovery Facility. I can promise it won’t be a rubbish day out!”

If you’ve ever wondered what happens to your waste these open days are the day out for you! Open to everyone, places on these always popular events should be booked in advance.

*Please note that these are operational waste management sites, so depending on location we are unable to accept visitors under 7 years old and at some sites we cannot accept visitors under 18 years old.*
