We’re delighted to support the Re-turn charity initiative, ‘Return for Children’, alongside Aviva Stadium, which encourages fans to make a positive impact through recycling. Launched in conjunction with Re-turn – operators of Ireland's Deposit Return Scheme (DRS) – visitors to Aviva Stadium can now donate their plastic bottles at designated Re-turn orange bins. All deposit proceeds will support the six national ‘Return for Children’ charities, with donations split evenly across all charities addressing different aspects of children's needs, from healthcare and support for serious illnesses to essential services and advocacy for vulnerable children. Starting with this weekend’s Aer Lingus College Football Classic match, fans will have the opportunity to donate their plastic bottles, in support of the Return for Children charities. It is estimated that the Aer Lingus Football Classic alone could raise up to three thousand euros for these worthy causes. To maximise awareness and participation, the initiative will be promoted extensively throughout the Aviva Stadium. Alongside raising vital funds, this campaign also promotes recycling and the reduction of the environmental impact of single-use drink containers at large-scale events, turning the recycling process into a force for positive change. ‘Return for Children’ will be rolled out across all Levy Ireland partner venues in the coming weeks and months.

Jonathan Cooper and all the team Solent University who have pushed me through my paces and made me the fittest I’ve ever been but have also given me their time and support for which I’ll be forever grateful.

🌿This week is #NationalAllotmentWeek, a yearly celebration of the green spaces that contribute so significantly to our health, wellbeing, and the planet! 🌍 Did you know that a quarter of our Levy sites feature thriving allotments? These spaces not only provide local and seasonal produce, but also reinforce our sustainability efforts by supporting biodiversity through the inclusion of wildflowers and other pollinator crops. 🌾 Our Sustainability Director, Kevin Watson, highlights “Allotments are a great way for our venues to support our commitment to more seasonal produce. Not only does this ensure we champion fresh British ingredients on our menus, but it supports local biodiversity which is becoming an increasingly important area of our Net Zero Strategy as we look beyond just carbon emissions. They also offer a great opportunity for our chefs and teams to engage with sustainability and many have taken learnings from our own Biohub to ensure they are maximising opportunities to align with nature. We will continue to share best practise from these venues to expand the opportunities for home grown produce and ensure our menus are centred around these seasonal ingredients”. #Sustainability #Biodiversity #Allotments #Hospitality #NetZero

Unlock the Future of Convenience at The O2! The O2 is revolutionising the guest experience with the recent installation of self-serve bars powered by Amazon's Just Walk Out technology, which aims to speed up service, reduce queues and give fans more time to enjoy the show. The unit is made possible by artificial intelligence, like computer vision and deep learning techniques, which accurately determines what items have been selected by the customer. Creating a rapid, frictionless food and drink experience, it allows guests to tap their contactless payment, grab their chosen drinks and snacks, and go - exiting without the need for a traditional checkout. The project exemplifies The O2’s ongoing investment in guest experience and solidifies the partnership with Levy, who are committed to innovation and ensuring every moment counts for fans visiting the venue. #JustWalkOut #FutureofRetail #NoMoreQueues #RetailInnovation #Frictionless #BUILTbyLevy

Ever wondered how a diverse underwater species could revolutionise single-use plastics? Business Director and Net Zero Lead, Kevin Watson, recently visited Notpla HQ's lab to witness this groundbreaking transformation firsthand. At the frontier of sustainability, Notpla is converting marine resources into scalable plastic alternatives, paving the way for a sustainable future. 🌍 🌱
At Notpla, it all starts with seaweed 🪸 While we had our friends from Levy visiting us at Notpla HQ recently, it felt only right to take them to where each and every plastic-free solution begins for us - the lab. As one of nature’s most impressive resources, we love to show off the process behind how we take this diverse, underwater species and turn it into a single-use plastic replacement - all ready to make a change at scale. The power of seaweed, huh? If you're in the market for the next generation of sustainable packaging solutions - or if you just want to see us used by your business - take action today and drop us an email: [email protected] #SustainablePackaging #PlanetEarth #PlasticFree

Our next supplier spotlight for #PlasticFreeJuly shines on Notpla. Our partnership will see 75 million items of Notpla’s seaweed-based, biodegradable food packaging being used by Levy over the next three years. 🌍 Take a look at the video below to find out more ⤵
The fight against single-use plastics isn't a solo mission; it's a collective effort that thrives on partnerships and industry collaboration. So, with Plastic Free July drawing to a close, we thought we'd pull back the curtain on one of these partnerships that's pushing us closer to achieving our mission. 🤝 🌎 We recently sat down with Kevin Watson, Business Director & Net Zero Lead at Levy UK & Ireland, for a chat about our partnership. Our co-founder and co-CEO Pierre-Yves Paslier Paslier and Kevin dive into the story behind our collaboration, its importance, and our goal: replacing over 75 million single-use plastics in just three years. 🚀 Want to know more about it? Give our chat with Kevin a watch. ⬇️ #Notpla #Levy #SustainablePackaging

🌍This #PlasticFreeJuly, we are proud to highlight our ongoing commitment to sustainability by showcasing our powerful partnerships and initiatives aimed at reducing single-use plastics. One of our key collaborations is with ONE Planet ONE Chance® Reusable Cup System, the UK's leading and only carbon-neutral reusable cup system for stadia, venues, and events. These innovative cups can be used, washed, and reused up to 100 times, significantly reducing waste compared to usage of common alternatives. With their impactful presence in 20 of our venues, We have used 1,847,040 cups so far this year, which is equivalent to a waste reduction of 14,776kg paper cups, and a CO2e saving of 27,336kg. We’re not just reducing our carbon footprint vs using common single-use alternatives - we’re setting a standard for environmental responsibility. 🌍 #Sustainability #PowerfulPartnerships
