Go Green Programme
Westminster Council's Go Green Programme sets out how the City Council is leading the way to become a more sustainable city. The aim of the programme is to re-establish Westminster as an exemplar ‘green’ authority. It is led by a board of top-tier managers who ensure that all of our services and policies work together to create a more sustainable and liveable city.
Go Green delivers a wide-ranging programme of environmental schemes and projects, and maps out a challenging agenda for the future. These projects are in line with Westminster Council's environment policy, which can be viewed here.
For more information on the City Council's recent environmental projects and for practical information on how to 'go green' visit the GO GREEN portal.
